How can you resist a face like this?
Thanks for all your support in 2009! Have a safe and happy holiday season and a wonderful new year!
And if you’re lucky enough to have a white Christmas (like it looks like we will in PA) go out and enjoy it!

home at last

by Leave a Comment

We’re finally home from a lovely few days in San Francisco.  (Although a less than lovely set of flights home.)  The weather was absolutely gorgeous.  I didn’t want to leave, especially to arrive home to rain and 40 degree temps.
I’ve got a lot more pics to upload from my DSLR, but unfortunately, one of the down sides to running your own business is that when you take a vacation, there is no one to help pick up the slack.  So now I’ve got to spend the rest of the day catching up on emails/phone calls/etc.  (And perhaps taking a nap – I hate taking an overnight flight!)

back from Ohio

by Leave a Comment

I had a nice time on my trip to Kent this week (despite the fact that it snowed on the way there!)  On Tuesday, I got to spend a little time with the current Kent State metals grads before giving my talk (which I think went pretty well).
On Wednesday, I had a nice little lunch with Corey before stopping by the Downtown Gallery to check out Miles Rountree‘s thesis show.

It was a nice little break, but now I’m full force into work mode.  I’m trying to keep going with the four week marketing plan, but I’ve got a lot of work to make for the SFMOMA trunk show.  I can’t believe we leave for San Francisco in less than a week!

from one of a kind to micro-production

I’m heading to cold and snowy Ohio today to give a talk about my work at Kent State University (where I went to grad school). 

I’ve been a little busy preparing (who knew it took so long to write a talk), so I’m a bit behind on the four weeks of marketing, but I’ll pick it up when I get back.
If your in NE Ohio, you should stop by – I’ll be speaking at 7 in the School of Art Building.

signs of spring

Thanks for all your nice thoughts on my post yesterday.  I decided to take it easy today, and Grizzly and I took a nice walk to the post office this afternoon.  On our way home, I came across this little guy – one of the first signs of spring! 

a shameless plug

My brother Tim has joined the blogosphere, and I promised him a little mention here.  I love how he moves between computer art, animation, and film production – with lots of other things thrown in.  Check out his blog for all his inspiration and process shots.
(Perhaps in exchange for the shout out, he’ll let me have one his “Roots” prints to hang in my kitchen.  Hint, hint.)

your opinion wanted

Quick question for all of you out in blog land-

if you were to attend a little art/craft/design business gathering, what sort of topics would you like to see presented? And how much would you be willing to pay for a 2 or 3 hour event? What if it included food or drink?

And because I love your feedback so much, I’m going to pick one commenter at random and send you a laser cut coffee cup cozy.
