happy new year blogland! i’m… a little out of date as usual.

life… has been cycle camping out and about the bay area (steep ravine and the pinnacles! so beautiful), working on a few new illustration projects, and planning some upcoming adventures that will keep me verrrry far from a computer!

a few recent n awesome illo happenings:

i illustrated a fun piece for momentum magazine. one of my favorite oakland coffeeshops- subrosa- printed my illo onto postcards for sale in the shop. and i’m almost finished with an alleycat flyer for new oakland bike shop the spoke!

fun <3

I’ve spent a lot of time with this lady lately! ArtCrank is next Friday Oct.21 (San Francisco) <3

The eve before (Thurs Oct 20) is Bike:Share Adventure at Homespun (Oakland)… my poster for that event is below.

Then… diving deep into an apparel design gig and putting out a few more art books. Making my way towards a more cohesive art book on my motorcycle drive cross country and… a few people I can’t quite forget. O,,,,, and dreaming of Berlin. Still. <3

Many thanks to both Nina Eve Zeininger and Addo Magazine!

Nina included my Tumbling Hearts Bicycle Patch in her sweet summary of the SF ZineFest on her blog Things I Make and Find. She did a great job (much better than I!) of checking out the rest of her fellow vendors and had an amazing selection cute goods herself at her Neon Sprinkles Studio table! I hope to actually remove myself from my table during the East Bay Alternative Press Book Fair.

And Addo Magazine included my *tiny* PKTR FRMS book in the first issue of their magazine.

Thank you <3

I just finished the poster for the East Bay Alternative Press Book Fair! December 10. Run by the awesome Tomas Moniz, editor of Rad Dad.

And! the printmaker’s picnic today was amazing. Sunny, a fun crowd, and a great reason to step away from my studio.

A few pics: Book Fair poster and a few shots from the printmaker’s picnic <3

Next up: SF Zine Fest! Excited.
