This week...

First off, remember when Cortney Heimerl (co-author of Handmade Nation the book) was preggers last year and couldn't finish the last few dates of the book tour? Well, check out Abraham Edward at his glorious 7 months and how flipping cute he is. I'm a huge fan.


Second, I am very much looking forward to my trip this week to Providence, Portland ME, Belfast ME and Boston for screenings ((details listed on the sidebar to the right)). I am super EXTRA excited for these reasons:

#1. I curated a very exciting show at Craftland Shop with two amazing women, MerrileeChalliss & Margaret Oomen AND I get to be there for the opening AND Merrilee will be there from Birmingham, AL where she lives and runs the bangin' spot Bottletree. I haven't seen Merrliee since she had a show at my gallery a few years ago and it is going to be FUN. So, if you know anyone in Providence, tell them to come to the show on Thursday, all the information is HERE.

#2. I get to hang out with Deb Dormody who is one of the coordinators at Craftland, and also the talent behind IF'N Books + Marks. Her dude Alec is also a treat to get to see. Actually Providence is full of magic, it's one of my favorite places in the United States. I'm so hyped for the screening on Friday there.

#3. I am hanging out in Portland Maine for the first time ever.

#4. I get to go to Belfast to see my friends new baby Olai and do a screening at the same time. Last time I was in Belfast I went to this amazing wedding.

#5. On Monday in Boston I FINALLY get to hang out with Meighan O' Toole from My Love For You, who organized the event there. That will be a treat.

I'll do my best to update you from the road....Then it will almost be February. Holy crap.

As a social movements freak, I'm loving that we are in the midst of our own that will be studied and speculated on in the future. and you're on the forefront!

Wish you were coming to San Diego to do a screening, or maybe you have been by and I missed it.

Sounds so inspirational and wonderful!!
