busy bee

hellooooooooo internet land! it's been a while since i made a blog entry, and for that i'm sorry. i generally try to write something every few days (once a day, if i'm on a lucky streak!) but i've been super busy with teaching issues and getting the managerial end of my artwork in order. it's at that point where if i don't handle something on a particular day, the whole house of cards collapses in on itself...argh! i'm remaking a few small artworks for a show in Barcelona and getting some grant proposals together to participate in an art symposium at the Fine Arts Academy in Beijing in July.

the vintage section has been a great addition to the anti-factory store--it will stay up as long as i have the help (kurt) who has time for it :) spring is starting to be sprung--ha ha--and it's making me sorta giddy with the design possibilities.

i'm officially closing my graphic design business, which was spotty anyway for the past few years (since entering grad school in 2003 i pretty much stopped taking on new clients). i freelanced for almost four years and was a designer at the exploratorium museum in san francisco for over eight years (oooof! i'm showing my age). i have to leave it by the wayside cuz there's too much other stuff to do. and besides, sewing clothing is way more fun than doing annual reports!

so new stuff will be posted probably late sunday or on monday...can't figure out what day yet, gotta coordinate. this winter light has been absolutely horrid to take photos of things, and i'm half tempted to invest in a lighting kit (more money! ack!) to make my life easier. or it may just be a total waste, who knows? i could use one to help me document my own artwork, actually, so....

anyhoo, will try to gather cool links for everyone soon. thanks for hanging tight!
