Flow Book for Paper Lovers

I'm so happy that I can finally share some of the fun illustrations I did for Flow Book For Paper Lovers #12. The header image of this newsletter is one of eight pieces I created on vintage photographs for this fun issue put out by Flow Magazine. The whole book is full paper, stationery, stickers, labels, envelopes, posters, fold-outs, streamers and fold-ups featuring artwork by a bunch of talented artists from around the world.

I believe I got an advanced copy, but it should be available for purchase in the coming weeks and I'll keep you posted once I can find a link. I was beyond excited that they reached out and wanted to collaborate with me.🌟

A Few Quick Art & Shop Updates

I just added a new postcard set to the shop featuring some historic Buffalo landmarks! I have a handful of my original Wish You Were Here postcard sets and just two sets of Rainbow Greetings on the studio shelves at the moment. I finalized my new linen towel designs for the holiday launch (coming soon!) and decided that I will be discontinuing the Color Block linen towel design to make way for three fun additions that I'm excited to share with you in the coming weeks.

Catching up – Friday the 13th edition

It's been a minute! How are you? I'm reaching out to say hey, catch up, and send some good juju your way on Friday the 13th.✨✨✨✨ 

We have been swept up in the end of summer / back to school / start of fall / holiday product planning / general life crazies. I've always liked this time of year and the return to some sort of schedule, but I have yet to find my fall footing.

Since last we virtually crossed paths, I finished the ever so charming Black Rock Books storefront mural, moved a bunch of plants around in the garden, and took my awesome sandals out on adventures. I had a blast teaching my second workshop at Making Waves Art Studio and really enjoyed seeing the fun things that students created on the black and white images in our time together. It has been a full few weeks.

Workshop with Me

My next workshop at Making Waves Art Studio is coming up quick – join me on August 8 from 6-8PM to have some Fun with Photos! We will get creative with photography, adding color and personality using mixed media. You'll learn fun ways to bring some magic to snapshots, old and new. Use some photos I selected just for this class, or you can even coordinate to provide your own personal photos to embellish. It will be great and I would love to see you there. Spots are limited – More info here!
