ode to the midwest

i am in ohio for the next few weeks. this is where i grew up and went to school. i drove back in my slow, old pickup from wyoming. here are some photos from the three days on the road.

BUST ad debut

today i got my new BUST issue with my ad in it!
(the colors are different??)


check it out yo'self!

its been a while....

didn't realize i hadn't written in over a month!
the past two weekends i've done shows. my Casper show was pretty disappointing monetarily, but worth it weight in golden knowledge i learned from my neighbor!! one plus to the shows!
i have set a major goal for my craft company... i am going to try and get to the buyers market of american craft by Feb. 2010. seems far away, but not really. Feb 2009 I'm going to attend their wholesale classes, then apply as a vendor for the next year. i feel this will give me time to develop my product, learn how much i can make and get a more regimented studio work schedule. so I'm feeling really inspirited and hopeful about achieving my goal for being a full time studio artist!
now i'm off to ohio for two big shows. hopefully these go better!
also on the horizon. corey and i have set a wedding date 9.3.09! so that will be going on as well throughout the next year. yay!!!
