More fan art

This one's from Erin...



Totally made my day.

I made it!

My show opening at A-hem was so much fun! Now it's time for some serious business: serious printmaking business.

I just ordered a ton of linoleum to work on a new suite this summer (top secret!) that will hopefully be stellar enough to approach a gallery. Also, there's the real business to tend to, finding funding for the studio. I get nervous just thinking about it.

The awesome blog Bloesem tipped me off to the online artist's gallery and store Little Paper Planes. This site really sparked my interest because of the quality of the work and a lot of it really appeals to my sense of aesthetic (that is- a little on the creepy side). I had to keep myself from blowing some serious bucks on the prints. Here are some examples from the site that I like, the fisherman print seriously makes me weak in the knees!

Eek Design

My good friend Erin at Eek Design has finally updated her etsy shop! And what an update it is! Erin is an impeccable crafter and designer and has an eye for quality and presentation. When Erin and I do craft fairs together I have a hard time not buying half her stock, check it out:

If you live in the area, please feel free to come by on gallery night for refreshments, April 20 7-11pm. The entire show are these plaque paintings that I've been doing for the art vs. craft fairs. They are reasonably priced and all very different.

SGCKCMOPIX

Pictures I took at the SGC conference in Kansas City can be seen on my flickr page if anybody is interested. I don't have much to say except that it was totally awesome. The coordinators this time did an excellent job and Kari and I took full advantage of the offerings. Our days were filled with panels, discussions, demos, and I think we went to every gallery opening on the list. We also got to spend Sunday wondering around the city, and I reacquainted myself with some old friends:
