I’ve been sick in bed for a few days and she’s been living her best life.

I need someone to write a think piece on the massive trifecta of live music: FireAid, Grammy, and SNL 50 Homecoming concerts back to back. Three weeks of absolutely astounding live music performances seen from my couch that only a few other people watched. End of an era, live.

Was just teaching students about viscosity printing this week and so I'm totally excited to see this great article about Krishna Reddy from Hyperallergic yesterday. By Shilpi Chandra via support from Center for Craft hyperallergic.com/989269/maste...

Spending a few days up at the University of Washington’s Friday Harbor Laboratory and we were allowed to borrow a night light - green LED stick that attracts sea creatures - at one point a harbor seal swam through the light and we exploded in joyous squeals, it was like seeing a celebrity in person.

Beautiful set of woodblock prints on exhibition at National Museum of Asian Art, through April 27, 2025. "..sosaku hanga artists and the creative process they formed within dramatic political and societal changes in Japan during and after World War II." www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-...

I need a streaming tv wrap up for my year. Like, I want to know exactly how many hours I spent watching crime procedurals this year. I want to share that with my friends.

Every once in a while something AI-ish happens and I think "oh crap, that's not cool" but there are so many of them now...like Google search just auto filled a whole phrase from a page I was looking at when I went to search for the next logical page in my search for the perfect overnight oats recipe

Just about one more month left to see Richard Serra at Gemini G.E.L.: Five decades of printmaking, at Joni Moisant Weyl - just the most luscious velvet blacks. Textural, minimal, printmaking

And just like that, it’s cookie season.

Testing testing - printed a pass of opaque white relief over ink jet. Started as a demo for class but I’m excited to spend some time carving, and to see what happens next. Printmaking woodblock print

November 21, 2025 just randomly watching the first ten minutes of Wonder Woman 1984 and accidentally bursting into uncontrollable sobbing for no reason whatsoever.

It was the annual Mom Show on KEXP this morning - an annual show about grief - with real mental health support and real good songs to wallow in - if, say, you need to process some things. Highly recommend. Click on Nov 14 and then The Morning Show www.kexp.org/archive/

Carving is always therapeutic. Just carving it all away. Mixing ink-jet and relief and woodblock printmaking demo prep for class next week.

Recently I was asked what it meant that Keith Haring is referred to as an “activist artist” and until that point it had never occurred to me that you could know & love his art & not know about his activism. Anyhoo.. Pace Print’s next show is Keith Haring prints thecitylife.org/2024/11/12/k...
