21 October 2010

I am not sure how I forgot to tell this story, but now is better than never. After Picnic Portland, we decided to extend our road trip and we continued on to Canada. The car was still loaded with all of my jewels and tent setup which I thought would just be extraneous stuff. While […]

travel tuesdays brings us to le marché

14 October 2010

Lately I have been loving my trips to the farmer’s market. It just getting there that is the problem. They run during the times that I tend to be vending. Normally, I am their neighbor in the park but I can’t always get away to get my shopping done. It makes me wish that we […]

It seems I am still a little in awe of Chromophilia, the amazing jewelry collection in the Craftland Gallery curated by Devienna Anggraini and Islay Talyor.  Part of the awe is over the talent in the collection, the other part is that my jewelry is just a few steps away from all these fun pieces.

welcome autumn!

Paris je t’aime

5 October 2010

It seems I have become an official Rhode Islander, I can’t stand my once a week commute out of the state into the neighboring Massachusetts. A half hour seems so far these days when my studio is a bike ride from home. Don’t be fooled, I don’t ride my bike there often as my furry […]
