valentines


Next week I will be adding a new set of Valentines Day cards to my shop!
They are flat with an envelope, just like the single cards I gave to classmates way back when.
They are printed archivally on the same beautiful textured paper as my fine art prints, so you can even gift them as frameable "mini-prints". Check back in next week!

Botanical Tea Towel

Hooray! My first ever, limited edition tea towels have arrived.  I am so excited for this next step and couldn't be happier with how they turned out.


The lovely folks at Orchard Street Press did an excellent job getting the soft color I was going for, using water-based inks and a beautiful, nubby natural towel.



Those of you who are fans of my botanical Gocco prints will love this new application. They are big, absorbant, and will feel softer with each use.

Head on over to the shop to pick one up - makes a great housewarming gift!

2012 Calendar

I have been putting a calendar out since 2009, and I really like every year more than the year before. This year is my favorite so far! It's a little bit bigger than previous years, it's printed on 100% recycled paper, and I have positioned each of the illustrations in a way that will allow you to cut them off for framing. All of these improvements are the result of you guys telling me what you would like to see. I love hearing what you think, so please feel free to send me a note or leave a comment!

I shipped out the pre-orders yesterday, and each package went out with an extra special edition print - my way of thanking you for supporting my shop and making it possible for me to put this out year after year. I love what I do, and I am so thankful to be able to keep doing it!

Some new things are on the horizon as well - my first tea towel will be available next week!

That's way too many exclamation points! Coffee!

– January 2012 –



THE KITCHEN


I would like to report major progress on the kitchen, but most of what has been happening is behind the walls. There is a lot of dust and clutter everywhere, and I am just so glad that Ava can't crawl yet. I just told Tom we would have to delay her development until after the construction is over. 
Kidding!

Have you ever tried ground cherries? It's like a tomato, but more like a cherry. Not like a cherry tomato.

play


I've been working on patterns and color fields a lot lately. I'm kind of obsessed with drawing and pattern play, and investigating possibilities for how they could be used. The pink scales will be fabric soon...

interview up at Lottie Loves...



Good Morning! Head on over to Lottie Loves to read an interview with yours truly.
Thanks to Charlotte for the honor!
Seeing my studio photos gives me even more incentive to reorganize that chaos and repaint the walls, so stay tuned for that this summer. 

In the world of babies, little Ava is currently laughing at her toys and figuring out how to grab things. It's amazing how every little thing she does leaves me in a state of wonderment and awe. It's a good, good life.

Art vs Craft 2010

Art vs. Craft 2010
Every year, I am in love with the promotional card and poster designs by the ever-talented duo The LIttle Friends of Printmaking. We have a few of their silkscreen posters, and I keep wanting more, but it seems a little nuts to have 10 art posters from the same artists. Maybe not. I will probably get another one this year at Art v Craft.


Speaking of Art vs Craft, I will be there again this year and I hope you will stop by and say hi. I will be the large pregnant lady with a table full of stuff, including the 2011 Wall Calendar.


Speaking of the calendar, it was featured this morning on Decor8! Holly put together a great selection this year, and I have to say, it looks like mine is the only one that has room to write events and birthdays on it. Hooray for my list-making obsession!

More to come int he next few days as I tackle wholesale orders and press checks....

2011 Calendar - Ready for Pre-Sale


HOORAY!
My 2011 Wall Calendar is off to the printer, and is now available for pre-order at my etsy shop.

I will be shipping them out as soon as I get them - likely within the first week or so of November.

I am also excited to announce (again) that for the first year ever, the wall calendar is available for wholesale orders. Please contact me if you are interested in the details.

I will also have plenty on hand at this year's Art vs Craft. I am so happy with the calendar this year!

I am also hoping (hoping) to offer a new format this year. Many of you have requested a wider format, more suitable for families and event planning. I'm getting to work on that next week and will let you know how it turns out.

2011 Calendar


I am working on the 2011 calendar, and am very excited to announce that it will be available for wholesale! I am setting up my forms and getting things in order, so if you know of a local shop that might be interested in carrying my calendar this year - please let me know! 

This is the first step in a my big plans for 2011. I can't wait to share what else I have lined up...

Have a great weekend, friends. The weather is supposed to be very nice, and we are looking forward to a hike through the woods and maybe some fig clafouti.
