INK + PAPER

Just finishing up the calligraphy for my little cousin's wedding. Although it takes oodles of time, there's something so very romantic about receiving a personally addressed invitation.

Keep your eyes peeled, I'll post the invitation I designed for her, along with some others I've worked on oh very soon...

SANFORD!

You are a gem...
I seriously love this man and it's an honor to call him Dad.

Thinking Thoughts

Been stewing in this idea... As someone whose curiosity has them constantly pulling in different directions, I'm slowly trying to streamline + focus. It's a struggle, but I think it'll only help me in the long run. For now, I hope this new office signage steers me in the right direction.

ART IN BLOOM

Had an amazing time helping Kaki with an exhibit for this year's Art in Bloom at the New Orleans Museum of Art. The theme was "The Grande Dame is Turning 100" in honor of NOMA's centennial year.

Our interpretation revolved around the romantic idea of a true southern lady coming in from a day in her wild garden and resting her belongings on a table. We played off oversized scale and created a huge hat out of woven kraft paper, which we sewed into shape. We also created crazy rope from tissue paper + books, which was wound with string and fabric. Kaki then wove an amazing beehive for our Grande Dame Gardner. *Apologies for the poor picture quality :( *

The exhibit will be on from now through the weekend.

Avant Garden / Art Yardsale

Take out them calendars folks, it's Avant Garden time - Saturday April 16th / 11-5.

I had such a great time participating last time + can't wait to share lots of new goods. Erik K from Constance does a fantastic job getting together great New Orleans artists. So don't miss it...

Lunch + Crafts

Been such a great week! Sun shining and working up a storm. Had the opportunity to help my friend and local designer Kaki Foley with a fun project. More to come...
