bébé shower invitation for little miss somi

=^.^=

Loving this photo, as I edit the Keating/Apen wedding. The bride has just put her dress on, and her sister - the Matron of Honor - is taking it all in and tearing up. Even as I was focusing in on the bride’s necklace being put on, I could see the emotion in my peripheral, and that *always* makes me tear up too! :’)

So…I made a wedding dress (!!!) for a favorite friend & client, JennyBunnyBunns.

This was an enormous & complicated task, but now that it’s finished I can look back at it and say I’m glad I did it (and I even had fun!). Strangely this is often how I feel after I have coded a website. Not exactly fun times when you’re in the nitty-gritty of it, but afterwards you feel so accomplished! I think that’s one of the beautiful things in life that I most appreciate: Hard work & creativity go hand in hand.

Jenny & Jason got married Sunday, March 21st. Congratulations!

My home studio is on unhappyhipsters.com! Haha :)

(The photo is from when the house was in Dwell Magazine in 2003. Here’s a recent photo I took after we had our bamboo hardwoods & raised livingroom platform installed - taken from my studio, which is what you see above the balcony in the Dwell photo: on Flickr)

It was hard to tell if social networking had instilled an instinct to compulsively pose, or if there was actually a photographer at the end of the living room.

I got this quite a while ago, but never posted a picture. I am still in love with it! My Saarinen style Tulip table. I call it my Conference Table.

Happy Winter!

Here is my self portrait, from the Not You Self-Portrait Art Show at MINT Gallery. This is the piece I was so excited about, because I had so much fun creating it. The art show has ended, but I am making framed, hand-cut 5-layer prints available in my Etsy Store: alterna180.etsy.com so please check it out!

(The other 3 seasons are available for sale as well, and the prints can be customized to any hair, eye, and skin color. I’m also making an afro hair style version available.)
