Patchwork
I’m working on a little something in Jessica’s studio right now. Something that’s making me downright hungry. I’ll show you the finished product as soon as it’s done—provided I don’t go bury my head in the veggie crisper first!

Love Nest
If you happen to live in Washington state, you can’t help but notice that love is in the air. It’s not quite what you think, though—rather than turtledoves and cupids flying around, the breeze is carrying ballot petitions and angry voices. Though Washington became the seventh U.S. state to legalize same-sex marriage earlier this year,…

About to hatch
Our new Dead Feminists broadside is coming next week! We’re still printing, which is proving to be a bit of a sticky wicket (as you’ll see), but here’s a snippet for now. Any guesses?

Printing at Penland
When Jessica and I were in North Carolina last summer, we had just enough sightseeing time to squeeze in a short trip along the aptly-named Blue Ridge Parkway. Between the dappled sunlight, the lush Southern greenery, and the unexpected splashes of color, we were enchanted in an instant. (I, for one, was tempted to do…

Signed, Sealed, Soapbox
It’s hard to ignore the news of protests, ahem, occupying the attention of cities around the world—of the many and diverse thousands of people unified under one simple, yet infinitely faceted mantra. As members of the, well, vast majority of folks without any real political or financial clout in the world, Jessica and I can…

In person
Who is this, I wonder? You should see the piles of things, er, occupying (hint!) my drafting table this month. You see, Art at Work month is almost here, and I’m scrambling to get ready for all the events coming down the pike. First up is Studio Tour, that crazy-amazing weekend where it seems like…

Even Keel
It’s hard to think of a better weekend activity than taking a quick trip to San Francisco. First of all, Jessica and I got to visit the lovely Sarah and Jesse, who live here— and whose back yard contains this. And then we got to raise a fantastic ruckus and make guerrilla street art with…

We Heart SF
Splurging on a giant bag of salt water taffy is probably a weird way to research a new project, but I swear it’s relevant. That’s right—Jessica and I are carving again. We’ve been invited by the good folks at the San Francisco Center for the Book (big shout-out to the amazing Rocket!) to be among…

Paper Chase
Jessica and I are back from Asheville, with fresh memories of hazy heat and sweltering summer on our minds. Back home in Washington, however, we’re having the kind of chilly summer that demands a cozy sweater, a cup of tea and time spent curled up with a good book (and thanks to our sojourn in…

Revolving door
Whew. I’m home from one adventure, but I’m about to turn right around and go off on another. There was just enough time between trips to do a little scribbling, a little scrambling—and maybe a wee bit of nervous screaming as the seconds counted down. We made it, though—and now, on this summer that’s had…
