Flock and Gather Spring 2013

I'm going to be in this!!!

Every year here in Saskatoon, we locals are lucky enough to have the chance to attend this incredible handmade market put on by the Flock and Gather Craft Collective.. The level of the work is always outstanding and I never leave without my bags full and my head bursting with inspiration. This year, I decided to apply for their Spring Market (they also have a Winter one) and, lucky me, I got in! So I'll be there selling my handmade finger puppets and some original art from my books. The trick will be to not just come home with more than I'm taking to sell...

Check out their blog and learn more about the amazing five founding members of Flock and Gather.

The Truth

(Sweater/ T-shirt- Gap, Pants- J Crew, Slippers- Old Navy)

So remember when I vanished for four months or so under a pile of book and magazine work? Here's what I really looked like during that time. Sexy, huh?

The wardrobe took a hit when work came a calling and when the never ending snow began a falling. This winter has been smothering. Clothing has to remain strictly functional or, better yet, stay in cozies and never leave your house. Clearly, I chose the latter.

Back with Bunny

(Sweater- Anthro, Shirt- Gap, Jeans- Pilcro, Boots- Arnold Churgin)

This isn't a mirage- it really is a NEW post! I finally had a chance to use my new toy- a lovely Cintiq computer- to make a quick sketch of a bunny wearing an outfit of mine. (Trust me, it looks better on her.)

I'm going to try to post more frequently, even if it's just updates on my work. Pinky swear.

And I'll post some news about what I've been up to during my radio silence soon. Or, better yet, if you are a reader of ChickaDEE magazine here in Canada, check out my new fiction series, The Space Chronicles debuting this month!

Okay, I'll stop shamelessly plugging my work. For now...
