Meet Frank N. Bot

I know it’s a little early; I realize the caramel marshmallows are not back yet; I know it was hot today, but I just love Halloween.  And really, if there’s a holiday to decorate for, Halloween is it.  I mean, you put up some fake spidey webs now, and take a little housework break til November.  Sounds good, am I right?

So anyway, here’s what I wanted to show you.  A Halloween version of my little bots, and a taller, dangly armed version of everyones favorite, Frank N. Bot.  You can find them for sale in my etsy shop.

So next I’m thinking pumpkin heads, I’m thinking ghosts, I’m thinking skeletons… what’s your favorite?

Robot Art Fair within Art Fair

The weather has become gorgeous in Ann Arbor again, salt in the wounds of the Ann Arbor Art Fair. Depsite the rain and humidity, or possibly in part thanks to it, the Robot Art Fair at 826 Michigan was a wonderful success!  My new line of robots were received warmly, and are now available through 826 Michigan’s shop.

And since I keep talking about robots, and robots, and making more robots, I figure it’s about time I actually post a photo of these guys.  I’ll be taking an army to Maker Faire this weekend, and those sold at the event come on a base inscribed with “Detroit Maker Faire 2010″.

Let me know what you think! I plan to make some larger robots soon, as well as robot ornaments as winter approaches - think tiny robot scarves…
