Our Story

Jay and Evelyn are a lucky couple. They learned a long time ago to stop worrying about everything and to focus on the things that they genuinely enjoy. In other words, they have stopped freaking and started geeking.

Jay draws and paints geeky stuff like robots and spaceships (mostly in watercolor and ink). Jay also does professional training and produces documentation and training materials for a variety of companies. Feel free to contact Jay if you are interested in having him apply his talents to your next project.

Evelyn is a sewing superhero, making bags, skirts, corsets, etc.  Together, the Larsens have a Contrary Robot Lab where they document their encounters with historical and contemporary Contrary Robots.  The Lab is also where they make their geeky art products before unleashing them on the world.

Now you can share in the discovery and creation of Contrary Robots. Check out the Larsen's original art, prints, cards, bags and other gear here on this website.  Join them on Facebook or Check the Events page to see where you can meet up face-to-face.  And if you spot any wild robots be sure and let them know...
