Part of me put this vid up so I couldn't forget it. Haha. It's a beautiful vid about the whole process of throwing the bowl on the wheel. The music is perfect as is the black and white it's shot in. For me, it really captures how I feel when I 'm throwing. I was thinking of taking classes again, and now I'm definitely going to. Haha.

First post of the new year!!!

I can't believe we haven't posted since December 30th. Goes to show, we've both been uber busy.

So....I've recently discovered paper cutting and other paper art. It's weird to think about b/c I started experimenting with paper and wire before the last art show without really thinking much of it. Then, I made that lampshade because I had extra paper lying around. Then, I was at a bookstore and saw this great book on papercutting artist, which Whitney got me for my birthday. And then in Portland, I got this really awesome book that shows all sort of paper arts, like origami and stuff. Anyways, in the studio yesterday I just played with paper for a few hours.

I think I found my medium. We'll see....

Bouncy Balls

A photographer caught pictures of tons of bouncy balls rolling through your city, a few years ago from what I read, and he is selling prints of them!

This takes me back to laying on your bed at Joe and Jane's and listening to music. It's by an artist named Austin Kleon. The website where I found it is also really cool: http://www.20x200.com/email/web/edition-announcement-368-austin-kleon.html
