Happy Holidays from APAK


Happy Holidays from APAK, originally uploaded by apak.

APAK is an artist duo -- these are the cutest little christmas cookies! This was from their holiday email greeting and I see it on their flickr page. I love their art.

Bakken Craft Fair




Bakken Museum, Tuesday Dec. 9th, Special Event with Craft Fair

I will be there with some ceramic robots, Peace Machine magnets, some art prints, and some original robot art works, priced to sell baby.

This was conceived as an event with artists and crafters who have sort of an electrical connection or theme to their work.

Join us for a highly charged holiday party at The Bakken Museum! Enjoy complimentary wine and appetizers from Let’s Dish while you explore The Bakken’s galleries and browse a unique selection of eco-friendly gifts including jewelry, clothing, accessories, toys, art and more from local “green” businesses like Artistic Edition, Barefoot Books, Cozy Corset Cuff, Danger Kitty Designs, Etta Mae, Ex Libris Purses, Fuzfrenzy, Kelly Newcomer, My Green Closet, Reincarnation Designs, Tea Tree Designs and XO Handworks. Commemorate the evening with a FREE snapshot in the Hair-Raising Photo Booth.

Lynda Barry


I love Lynda Barry. She is a comic artist, creator of Marlys, and her new book is on my wish list (at the library, where I will be content to borrow it; we have too many books in this house as it is!) Check out her book "What It Is" It's about the creative process, specifically writing.
