The Gals talk Steam Punk this week and because they are both huge fans of this genre of art, they were ecstatic to talk about it. After a brief history of Steam Punk Katie and Loni cover writing; fashion/costumes, jewelry and accessories, assemblage art, sculpture, painting and drawing, and then give us a rundown of way to incorporate Steam Punk into our mixed media art. There are plenty of silly sidebars and nonsensical rants today so get comfortable and enjoy this one.

Check out the glorious Pintrest board for this episode here.

Here are the articles Katie cited on the origins of Steam Punk. Read them both, they are great!

Next week is a “Katie and Loni Doing Stuff” episode! We are not 100% sure what they will be doing yet because our budget around here is a bit tight right now and what The Gals want to do may not pan out. No matter what they do it will be and awesome packed episode, so until then… make some cool shit, yo!
