Cards, Stamps, Envelopes

New Card Picture 1
Ever since I got my new camera I've been slowly trying to replace the photos of things in my store with better photos. The latest things to get some sprucing up were my cards, I did some simple styling with old stamps and hand lettered envelopes, which I always think looks like a nicer context than just a white background. (I also had fun creating the envelopes with names from characters in books and made-up addresses)

Semaphore Foxes

It's been a rough couple of days work-wise. I feel like I'm fighting with myself all the time. I need to try to be easier on myself and not think about things too hard, just keep trying to do what I want and not worry too much about what I think other people expect.

Ceramic Pen

I've actually been in Michigan for the past week but before I left I did a few experiments with these blue and gold porcelain draw-able pens. I'm pretty pleased with them! Especially the gold touches. I'm thinking about eventually offering a few one of a kind pieces in my shop...

Also, the pieces from my show at Assemble Gallery are now available to buy online!

Seattle

Aradan and I went up to Seattle last Friday for my opening at Assemble and did some things like visit the aquarium, amazing public library, and market. It was actually sunny for the first time in a while and it was so nice to just walk around in the sunshine for a day! Since I am a big fan of savory pastries one of the highlights we came across was Piroshky, Piroshky, a Russian bakery with delicious hand pies which we ate in a sunny park. Nom nom.

Should you be interested the work from my show will be available on the Assemble gallery website, as soon as I send them some pictures!

I thought this sample of tea I got from the Banff Tea Co. looked so pretty, it's full of flowers.

Framed Wolfie
A friend sent me a bunch of old frames she's collected, including three of these little round butterfly ones. I decided to make a very limited edition of three wolf prints for them, which you can now find in my store
