Spokane Doesn't Suck

A typical conversation while out of town...

"Where are you from?"
Spokane!
"Oh wow, I'm sorry."
Don't be. (Followed by me proclaiming my undying devotion)

Big thank you to Derrick from Spokane Doesn't Suck for asking me to contribute. This is a fantastic idea...a fantastic blog! It's great to be reminded that there are others out there loving on this city. Some days this side of the bleachers feels a bit lonesome.

Read my post here. Forgive me for my nerdiness. Then read the blog! The other submissions by Karli and Brandon are glorious.

Hello

Guess who's back? I try to blog when I can and not worry about it when it becomes too taxing...But then comes the guilt.

I made a pretty little picture because I missed you. ♥

Exciting things are brewing...literally. Coffee! Monday marks the release of my letterpress coffee bag from DOMA. I will post about this next with images and such (in a day or so). Also, I am making beautiful new works for my first out of Spokane solo show and instillation this coming March. I can't wait to give sneak peeks!

Hope you all had lovely Holidays! 2012 seems to be off to a grand start.

See the cute black fox dance in the stream.

I got a fancy new computer at work the other day and decided it was time for a serious wallpaper change! I can't even focus from the moment I decide that I hate my desktop image to the moment it has been replaced. I could just make one, but that would take time I never have that second. I had begun my search and to my pleasant surprise the clouds parted and appeared an image. Or rather, a web page...full of amazing backgrounds.

Enter Bobby and his art and design blog 'Kitsune Noir' (Black Fox, - Japanese and French) He started a "The Desktop Wallpaper Project". This is my new favorite resource for personal workday joy. New wallpapers once a week by amazing artists, and this month he has teamed up with a design collective called "Just Us" releasing a new design every day for the entire month...and they are fantastic so far!
