OUI & Me

I've been a big fan of Angela Hodgkinson's line of ceramic candles, OUI, for a long time, and when she emailed me and asked if I wanted to work together on a special collection of hand-painted candles I was thrilled. In April she shipped me 12 blank, bisqued teacups, and I painted them and shipped them back to her in Oklahoma City. Shortly after I sent off the box the devastating tornadoes struck. Angela and I are both devoted cat moms (I'm huge fans of Hazel and Jacques on her Instagram), and we decided to give all proceeds from the sale of this collection to the Central Oklahoma Humane Society for their work rescuing, saving, housing, and placing pets during and since the devastating May tornadoes.

The collection is for sale here.

new stuff!

Here's a peek at some new products and patterns that are coming to the shop next month. It was so much fun taking these photos with some great girls recently. And really could Gillian and Gaby be more beautiful?! Ugh.

Everything shown above (and a zillion other things) will be with me at Renegade Craft Fair this month (details a few posts down or here if you missed it).

things

just some things I drew the other day when it was too hot to work in the studio. I painted these with an eyebrow brush while sitting on my bedroom floor, I had forgotten to bring a real brush home. thinking of summer, packing for California, and new clothes I want to buy. I don't really want to go, I'm going to miss Moses too much.
