Many of the members of Apple of my Odd Eye are also associated with another indie Toronto media company, Geek Collateral Media. I’ve put together this gallery of geeky art for your enjoyment and to highlight the connections between the projects we’re involved in (and to let you know about another awesome WordPress site).
I hope you like it.

We weren’t planning on posting anything tonight, but then half the evening got devoted to painting, and I couldn’t resist posting our works in progress. I love the colours! Now we both have to find the courage to keep working on them despite the fear of destroying what we’ve got so far. Heh.
Paintings in progress
The painting on the left is Devin’s and the one on the right is mine.
Cheers,

“Roots III” – Sarah Y. Varnam
“Roots III” is part of a new painting series. There will probably be four, though I may end up making more, as I’m really enjoying the contrast of the black and white.

Sarah’s Portfolio
Apple of my Odd Eye was at “Hey, We Here’s Good Art” at Betty’s bar in Toronto last night to support AOMOE artist Sarah Y. Varnam‘s inclusion in the pop-up art show. The show featured an array of artists’ portfolios, sketchbooks, zines, and video installations. We’ve assembled a photo gallery below:
We also brought The Quilliad, the literary journal that Sarah helps to edit, and Devin’s poetry book, Love and Longing.
The Quilliad & Love and Longing
It was a good night of good art, good food and drink, and good company. We look forward to organising events like it ourselves.

“Roots II” – Sarah Y. Varnam
Before this piece, there was only going to be one “Roots” painting, but now I’m having too much fun with the aesthetic. There will be at least two more in the series.

“Roots I” – Sarah Y. Varnam
Finally done! I posted some progress shots back in January–you’ll be seeing the finished version of Devin’s piece from that post soon as well. Making sure that none of the paint for the black background got in the white root lines took way longer than I expected, though I’m glad I persevered. I’m really happy with this one.
