Heathen Stomp was a Rip Roaring Good Time!

All you slackers who didn’t make it to Dismal’s Heathen Stomp surely missed out on a rip roaring wooting and hollering good time! One Man Banjo put on an amazing show as did The Mighty Lynch-Pins, and  Creamed Corn Thumb Wrestling has to be the best worst invention in the history of sports! Though that’s not to knock the skills of those who played Jackalope Ringtoss or Pin the Finger on Danger Ranger. For those with patience to sit for a spell there was some high quality portrait art happening—or should I say poor-traits.

All in all it was a fine group of folks who showed up and spend their hard-earned money to support the creative works of The First Church of The Buzzard’s Holy Whiskey Missionary! If you know Dismal than you know the hard work they put into their creative missionary work.

If you would like to show your support for Dismal’s upcoming creative mission, you can donate to Dismal via PayPal.

Balsa Man Decompression!

Oct 2008 10 – Filed under art

Balsa Man Build - cutting the rings

That’s right folks! There will be a Balsa Man Decompression for all of you who didn’t get enough tiny art at our inaugural Balsa Man event this past August. Even better Balsa Man Decompression will be held in the middle of Burning Man SF Decompression this Sunday, Oct 12th from noon till 10pm.

We will be decompressing by hosting the Balsa Man Tiny Art Station complete with blasa wood, blades, and glue. If you have your own supplies and tools please bring them too! Due to fire restrictions, there will be no tiny art burn at SF Decompression, but participants are encouraged to have to bring their tiny art home for their own personal burn parties.

The Tiny Art Station is also a skills training workshop for people interested in making their own diminutive masterpiece for next year’s Balsa Man 2009 “Big Dreams Writ Small!”

Hope to see you there!
