<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Well, hello again! Yes, yes, I know that it has been about forever. Or nearly 3 years, which is almost the same, depending on your life span. While I knew when I started that I would probably not be a regular blogger, I also never intended to let so much time lapse in between posts, but, well, life. I've updated some details on the main sidebar, and updated reading lists and sites to visit will come soon. If you are interested in more up-to-date details you can always follow me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ninaevezeininger/" target="_blank">Instagram (@ninaevezeininger)</a>.

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A few arty things have happened since 2018 rolled in and I thought to restart this ol' blog, the <a href="http://sfmlkday.org/bcafcon/" target="_blank">Black Comix Arts Festival (BCAF)</a> would be a good way to go. This year was the festival's fourth year but I am ashamed to admit I didn't know it was a thing until I was tipped off by <a href="https://redletterdayzine.wordpress.com/">Red Letter Day Zine</a>.</span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: x-small;"> </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Boy, am I glad I was! The event, sponsored by the <a href="http://norcalmlkfoundation.org/" target="_blank">NORCALMLK</a> and the <a href="https://sfpl.org/" target="_blank">San Francisco Public Library</a> was full of incredibly talented and nice folks, great artwork and yes, comics. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Next, I found myself drawn to the artwork of <a href="https://lightningstrikex.com/" target="_blank">Marcus D. Newsome</a>. The way he incorporates graffiti and other street art into the backdrops of his comic Lightening Strike is phenomenal. He also makes sure his story is relate-able, whatever walk of life the viewer is from. The digital version of this comic was also incredibly well done. Newsome himself was very kind, signing my comic in gold and even doing a quick sketch inside!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I had a great time chatting with <a href="https://www.cca.edu/academics/faculty/msilady" target="_blank">Matt Silady</a>, chair of the C<a href="https://www.cca.edu/academics/graduate/comics" target="_blank">alifornia College of the Arts MFA in Comic Arts program</a>. He can make anyone feel like they're the next great comic artist. The MFA students in the program are very talented and I'm happy to have gotten a copy of the 2015 anthology. I chose it over the 2016 anthology mainly because of the work of <a href="http://www.bexfreund.com/" target="_blank">Bex Freund</a>, seen in the second photo above. The MFA program also has a comic to promote it, which is, to state the obvious, spot on and charmingly creative (and a great read while consume a lunch of veggie burger and chips). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My last stop before heading home to the aforementioned veggie burger was <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MurphyMilburn/" target="_blank">Smurphy Graphics </a><i><a href="https://www.facebook.com/MurphyMilburn/" target="_blank">Cartoons & Illustrations</a>. </i>The human in charge of Smurphy Graphics, Murphy Milburn, has a collection of comics done in the single-sheet-book format and they are wonderful. This book structure is the one I begin my <a href="https://sfcb.org/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=2954" target="_blank">Introduction to Bookbinding</a> workshops with because I think it's versatile and also a great warm-up/starter structure for those just beginning their bookbinding adventures. Sometimes there will be students disappointed that there 'isn't more to it'...I think Mr. Milburn's work begs to differ. Each of these mini comics is a self-contained world, a story with a beginning, middle, and end. They show how off how much can be done with a simple format and some creative energy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Inventions, both outlandish and practical, along with their inventors, is one of the things <a href="http://makerfaire.com/">Maker Faire</a> is all about. It'd be difficult to sum up the fair in a single blog post but the <a href="http://www.uspto.gov/">U.S. Patent and Trademark Office</a> booth has a fun way to showcase the importance of inventors: with trading cards!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I'm not an inventor myself, but the folks at the <a href="http://www.uspto.gov/">U.S. Patent Office</a> booth won me over with the trading card set (free, by the way) they have of important/famous folks that had patents for inventions.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I loved the cards but had no idea what to do with them. While cleaning up some scraps around the studio, it came to me- make a book!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Since cards are individual sheets of paper and it was important to view the entire card, front and back, the loose leaf Coptic stitch was the way to go. It holds all the cards between two hard covers and allows the entirety of each card to be viewed with minimal destruction to the card itself.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The cover boards are wrapped with a cotton fabric that was not originally intended for bookbinding but which I starched myself with methyl cellulose for easier use. So, it was almost like I was an inventor too...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Who doesn't love the chance to combine two things they love? Now, bookbinding and cider might not seem like your typical duo, aside from the occasional glass of cider while putting together a book, but, bear with me here because you have to literally think inside the box. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I love traditional binding structures and materials but I also enjoy having fun and experimenting so when <a href="http://handbookbinders.org/">Hand Bookbinders of California</a> put out the call for their <a href="http://handbookbinders.org/exhibitions/">43rd annual members' exhibition</a>, I knew just what I wanted to do. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><a href="http://handbookbinders.org/">The Hand Bookbinders of California</a> promote fine bookbinding in all its forms so I decided to push the limits of traditional technique by using non-traditional material: namely a cider box for the cover. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I have been working with French Linkstitch binding for a while now, exposing a sewing method that is often hidden behind a spine, to make journals that open flat while the sewing creates nice designs along the spine. To let the binding method sing true along with the cover material, I went with a <a href="http://www.smithandforgehardcider.com/?&mst=google|new_SF_Brand_Core|SF_Core|smith%20&%20forge%20hard%20cider&mkwid=spo0riUeY|dc_pcrid_73003257187_pkw_smith%20&%20forge%20hard%20cider_pmt_e">Smith & Forge Hard Cider</a> box. This crisp, dry, canned cider come in larger boxes which means a larger end result and more visible stitching. The lightweight cardboard used in the packaging shows where the cans were placed which added an unplanned but nice texture to the project. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3F2OSTyT2k7lLOH1l2sD8M3sT94r1NGitC_6lRaJp9tw9sCjhEZuA7U4OIyRy58J-b4ZyGQsKPy4OOc8LDSCLmVF5yEST83f2tvRDhm9_hfA2jVdil5WChehpNEZ6BGBfpKIe1AoXaXA/s1600/repair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3F2OSTyT2k7lLOH1l2sD8M3sT94r1NGitC_6lRaJp9tw9sCjhEZuA7U4OIyRy58J-b4ZyGQsKPy4OOc8LDSCLmVF5yEST83f2tvRDhm9_hfA2jVdil5WChehpNEZ6BGBfpKIe1AoXaXA/s640/repair.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The container was made the same way that canned soda boxes are, with a part on top you can punch in to create a handle. In order for this to operate properly, the side panels of the box, which are the ones that to create a cover, were made with small slits at the top, right in the center where the fold would go. The slit height fell exactly where I needed my kettle stitches to go so I had to do a bit of light paper repair for the stitches to hold. A small piece of Lokta paper (handmade, Nepalese paper), a bit of PVA, and a bone folder were all that was needed. The Lokta paper was glued to the inside of each panel, across the fold, covering up the slit. Because each side panel would be folded in half and then laminated together after sewing, I knew that just one strip would hold and I also didn't have to try to disguise the repair because it would be hidden. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Because the motto of the cider company is 'Made Strong', I used that motto for inspiration of the design/placement of the sewing stations. With the orange-red logo color of the cider and given the fact that I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, 'made strong' to me makes me think of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge. Both bridges have survived earthquakes and tons of traffic on a daily basis and they make use of tall and shorts posts for support (forgive my oversimplification of engineering, these bridges were inspiration only and the sewing was a very loose interpretation). This lead me to alternate the spacing of the sewing stations for the X-shape created with the French Linkstitch, so there would be small X's holding down the ends and a large X in the center. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you haven't had a chance to check out the <a href="http://handbookbinders.org/">Hand Bookbinders of California 43rd Members' Exhibition</a>, please do. There are many amazing feats of binding by some incredibly talented people. It'll be on view at the <a href="http://www.bookbindersmuseum.org/">American Bookbinders Museum</a> until September 13.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Now, while I'm not much of a cook-- my cooking adventures often end in flames-- I do enjoy getting my bake on from time to time. A few months ago (yes, I am behind on new posts, I know, I know) I had the chance to combine baking with my love of paper craft in a cake made for a friend. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This friend is into many things strange and morbid and it seemed only fitting to make a graveyard cake. The gravestones were hand cut out of paper, hand lettered and then attached to toothpicks to top the cake. I even made a personalized 'not dead yet' gravestone (not pictured).</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The cake was chocolate, resembling dirt once you cut into it. For an added layer (cake pun), I used strawberry preserves as a filling so things would seem a little 'bloody' while you were eating.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The cake was frosted with a simple cream cheese frosting which was easy to manipulate into a cemetery.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In a little over a month, <a href="https://sketchbookproject.com/events">The Sketchbook Project 2015</a> tour will be in the Bay Area and I'm ever so excited to once again have a sketchbook on tour. Since some of you will soon be able to view my submission in person, I thought it timely to share my work-in-progress images highlighting the making of my sketchbook. For those of you that <a href="https://instagram.com/ninaevezeininger/">follow me on instagram (@ninaevezeininger)</a>, you will recognize some of the images, since that is where I share my projects in 'real time'. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you are not able to make it out to the Bay Area <a href="https://sketchbookproject.com/">The Sketchbook Project</a> events, or you don't live in an area they are visiting, you can view <a href="https://sketchbookproject.com/library/16992">my completed sketchbook</a> in its entirety in their <a href="https://sketchbookproject.com/library">digital library</a>. <a href="https://sketchbookproject.com/library">There</a> you can also browse all the other wonderful artists that participate. While it's not the same as seeing the sketchbooks in the flesh, the folks over there do a phenomenal job of scanning the works.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As you know, I simply love words and quotes and I've been wanting to do more hand lettering so my submission for the 2015 tour was a compilation of hand lettered and illustrated quotes. Everything is done in a line drawing style and all black and white. There is some black colored pencil shading for the first quote, which is done over several pages, just to increase the impact of that quote.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The sketchbook opens with a bit of Shakespeare, perhaps his most quoted lines ever: 'To be, or not to be, that is the question', from Hamlet. Might as well start off with a bang, right?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The impact of this quote/question has so many layers to it so the quote itself is done over a few pages and is cut out of the paper.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My process involved sketching everything out first with mechanical pencil, then outlining and filling in with Micron pens, before finally using an eraser over the entire page to remove any pencil remnants.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The project was fueled by a lot of tea and tea lattes. While I would love to say that I have a home studio, my artistic career is not yet at that point, and even though I have a great little workspace in the apartment, coffee (tea) shops provide less distraction than my 2 cats, laundry, dishes, and all that other stuff that always seems to lead to procrastination when trying to work at home.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The past couple of weeks have been hectic at work, so, on Sunday, after calling our fathers, L and I decided to do whatever we felt like-- which was stay at home and relax. Here's a quiet collection of pictures from around the apartment to go with our quiet day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">And now, for some hand drawn flowers.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When trying to think of the perfect holiday present, I came up with an idea for a new book arts project.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My love for old things, 18th and 19th century botanical drawings, flora, and books decided to tie themselves together for this one. You have probably already seen <a href="http://thingsimakeandfind.blogspot.com/2015/04/p-is-for-plants.html">my post about P is for Plants</a>, the second book in this as yet untitled series, so I won't bore you with too many unnecessary details but this is the book project that began it all. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In this book I worked only with lettering and line drawing, keeping things rather simple to see how it would play out. It was also less like a field journal, with just common and Latin names for each of the flowers, instead of details about them as well. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Having done two books in this style so far, I'm feeling like there is a lot of potential for further projects and for turning this into some sort of series. I guess we'll see where it goes!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">These flower images have a different purpose from my other flowers pictures. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">L's birthday was earlier this month and her parents sent her a lovely little flower arrangement. Not wanting to keep it at work, she brought it home where it would potentially face the wrath of my two crazy cats. Hiding in our little sink area wasn't much of an existence for the arrangement either so in an attempt to prolong their lifespan, I decided to photograph the flowers. These images are a bit of a belated birthday present for L.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As you may already know, 2015 marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of one of the greatest pieces of literature of all time (subjective opinion but I'm not alone in this), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice%27s_Adventures_in_Wonderland"><i>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland</i></a>. A perfect combination of nonsense, adventure, math, and card gaming, it was a tale I could never resist. Nor could I resist doing a letterpress project to celebrate this anniversary.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Now, I'm only going to give you a little glimpse into this project right now but, suffice it to say, it will be a bookmark set containing hand-set quotes equal parts from <i>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland</i> and it's chess game sequel, <i>Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There</i>. The sets will be editioned in 150, to tie them back to the anniversary</span>.<br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As you know, I'm quite fond of upcycling, or taking something old, used or worn and turning it into something new. With this in mind, I jumped at the challenge of creating a piece for the exhibition. It all began with an orphaned volume of the Encyclopedia Britannica that I found at a <a href="http://sfpl.org/">SFPL</a> book sale a few years back. I had been using it sporadically for collaging and wrapping paper but wanted to do a larger scale project with it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The volume I had was PLANTS to RAYM and, given my obsession with plants, it naturally seemed that that should be the subject for this book. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I started out by making a list of plants I wanted to include. I won't lie, I chose ones that I liked, but also tried to have a mix of flowers, green plants, and fruit bearing plants. Then, with a decent amount of Internet searching for models, I sketched each page out in my notebook before moving on to the actual pages. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I really love the botanical field journals of the 18th and 19th centuries so while researching, I took short notes about each plant I was drawing so that I could add notes, making the final book have a bit of a field journal air to it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It was quite laborious given that I'm not known for my penmanship, drawing isn't my strong suit, and neither is coloring, but I wanted to push myself so each page was sketched, inked with <a href="http://sakuraofamerica.com/pen-archival">Micron</a> pens, and colored with colored pencils. I'm rather pleased with the results.</span></div>

The backside of the book is lamented with un-altered encyclopedia pages. The book is unique and not editioned.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Let's just admit it, there is something incredible and fascinating about bones and skulls. One of the best special exhibits done by the <a href="http://www.calacademy.org/?classes=ab-exp-alt-btn&utm_expid=12551229-31.Z5QmE7CSRWmG4C8fP4hc2Q.1&gclid=COaG1ZHL-cQCFYhhfgodkKsAuQ&utm_referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Faclk%3Fsa%3Dl%26ai%3DCx0RZuwQvVfWfH46GpgO7rYHoBK6pkKcFhqa4pbcBjei2PQgAEAFgyY7whsijoBmgAZLB_8sDyAEBqgQiT9AcXtAI4BR4kGY2gW_-rJuDFs4ZF_eYuhkKwkY8AzwW1oAH1r6ANJAHAagHpr4b2AcB%26sig%3DAOD64_2Dkid6vdhB3vsSroNTpsCYzRKPrQ%26rct%3Dj%26q%3D%26ved%3D0CBsQ0Qw%26adurl%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.calacademy.org%2F">California Academy of Sciences</a>, in my opinion, was 2014's Skulls exhibit. In a super simplified summary, it was a large room filled with skulls and information about said skulls. It allowed insight on how the internal bone structure of animals directly relates to their functioning and needs as living beings. As you can imagine, I wanted nothing more than to photograph the exhibit, which is precisely what I did. There are a lot of photographs coming up and I'm not going to ruin it by being overly wordy, I am just going to let you look and enjoy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">Note: To add a bit of drama, and also bring things down to more basic elements, which is what bone structure is, I've desaturated the photos so they are black and white. The images are scaled down and paired (in no particular order) to save a bit virtual space. Wishing they were larger? Well, maybe, just maybe, these will become a zine at some point in the future, most likely with more words. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Historically
known as 'beermats', coasters first came into use in the 19th century and were originally used to cover drinks to keep out bugs and debris in dirty bars. Now, everyone knows coasters as the objects you set your drinks
on to protect a table surface and they are often covered with</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> advertisements for restaurants, bars, beverage companies, etc.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'American Typewriter'; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Punctuation Coasters is a functional book arts project; meaning that it acts not only as a work of book art to view, but also as a set of functional tools, coasters, intended for use by the possessor. Despite having a cover and colophon, this book is not bound in the traditional sense, but rather it exists as eleven coasters that break down and celebrate the building blocks of a sentence: punctuation. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">Every project begins with make-ready, as in, making the press ready for printing. Despite it's simplicity, I knew this was going to be a detailed project with a lot of press changes (due to the size difference, the wood images and smaller lead type could not be printed at the same time if I wanted the best impression from both) so I started by cutting a set of new tympans for the best quality printing throughout the project.<br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Every once in a while I get up a bit early (yes, I am sometimes capable of getting up early), leave behind my beloved bike and take a walk from place to place. I like this occasional change of pace because it gives me time to discover something I might otherwise have missed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The images below are in no particular order and, while some locations will be quite obvious, I purposely left out descriptions so they can be discovered by the viewer who can then make up their own story and meander in their own, virtual, way.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After a little over a year off, in which I focused on teaching and job transitioning, I rejoined the craft fair game with <a href="http://sfcb.org/">San Francisco Center for the Book's</a> annual Holiday Fair this past December (yes, yes, I am super late getting these images posted, don't hate me!). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Since I no longer have a car, I have to rely on public transit (<a href="http://www.actransit.org/">AC Transit</a>, <a href="http://www.bart.gov/">BART</a>, and <a href="http://www.sfmta.com/">Muni</a> here in the Bay Area) to schlep all my stuff to and fro. While it's obviously not ideal, I never back down from a challenge and one's display can always use improvement. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Traveling on public transit also meant that I had to re-assess just how much I took both in terms of product quantity, and display materials. The card holders were a must but everything else I was bringing from items to sell to my tablecloth and 'Santa's cookies' all had to fit in a single rolling suitcase. This meant playing more with surface level display as opposed to building up with stands and supports. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Instead of having back-up product stashed below the table, I actually used it to stack items on top of themselves within the table display to give a leveled/layered appearance. Finding a balance between looking professional and putting my products' best feet forward while maintaining a fun, slightly chaotic feel was a challenge with this set-up and I can definitely perfect what I've done for future set-ups. I do think this style adds to the 'garage sale' nature of my booth design which, with handmade chalk board price tags (made on playing cards this time), table cloth, etc, has been my aim for the most recent shows I've participated in. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I found the show to be a lot of fun, and also a great success. Of course, a lot of this can be attributed to the lovely attendees to the event, but I'd like to think my display and design contributed to my success, at least a bit.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">While I'm 'back in the game', I am still new to the art and craft world and the craft fair world. I don't as of yet have anything else booked for 2015 but don't worry, you can bet there will be more and more chances for you to see my work in person (and say hi!) in the future instead of being restricted only to my <a href="http://neonsprinklesstudio.etsy.com/">Etsy</a> shop. </span>Nina Eve Zeiningerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496176135748123560noreply@blogger.com0375 Rhode Island Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA37.765357 -122.40233112.452222500000001 -163.710925 63.0784915 -81.093737tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4723604075623951073.post-6445100194717348062015-02-26T12:00:00.000-08:002015-02-26T12:00:04.405-08:00Creatures<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As I mentioned in an <a href="http://thingsimakeandfind.blogspot.com/2015/02/things-behind-glass.html">earlier post</a>, I have this as yet amorphous project that I'm calling 'Behind Glass' involving photographing items in museums, conservatories, etc. to delve into the human obsession with collecting and looking at things of all sorts. As I've begun working, I realized it's not just taxidermied, dried, or otherwise no-longer living things that are collected, there are also zoos and aquariums that collect fauna and put them on display. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On my latest trip to the <a href="http://www.calacademy.org/">California Academy of Sciences</a> I was able to get some rather interesting images and views of the normal and unusual species they had on display. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As you may, or may not know, I have quite the obsession with quotes (I've collected 'just a few' on my <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/neonsprinklesst/quotes/">pinterest</a>). This past year, I've worked on taking them from the screen and making them my own. There are many artists out there that work with quotes, one of my favorites being <a href="http://lisacongdon.com/home/">Lisa Congdon</a>, and after looking over that work I decided on the route I would take, a combination of simple illustrations and hand lettering. My skills are less than rudimentary but I'm excited for the possibilities that have opened up for me. I will definitely work on improving my hand lettering skills and I might also progress this into a little book series, or longer-term letterpress project using digitized-photopolymer versions of my illustrations and fonts instead of hand lettering. There are so many opportunities, who knows! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here is a small collection of starter projects that I've worked on. Also, there appears to be a bit of an image quality issue with these particular photographs so I've down-scaled the pictures from the size I normally use in the hopes that they will look better on your screen. </span><br />

Having a full time job in food service means that I also spend a lot of time surrounded by food so who could help but take a few (or a lot) of pictures. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Shortly before the winter holidays and the end of the year officially hit, I was wrapping up a few projects in the studio and happened upon some flowers left over from a holiday event. They had been left uncared for over a weekend and were clearly destined for the compost bin but there was still something about them that caught my eye. I had my camera with me and couldn't resist spending nearly an hour photographing them. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; text-align: start;">I love the Dutch tradition of vanitas and, despite the lack of bugs and complete rot, these past-their-prime flowers reminded me of that tradition. I would be lying if I said I had thought of the overtly poetic end-of-the-year-death-evergreen-new-life concept as I photographed; that didn't happen until I was typing up this post. Vanitas, symbolism, nice photos, interpret them however you like, I am simply sharing this quick end of 2014 photo project with you.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I, like countless others, love going to museums. I can't really explain it, but I love seeing all sorts of things from living, breathing creatures, to bones, dioramas, and specimens. I love the learning and observing that you get to do in these spaces. I am {very slowly} developing a project based on the fascination that humans have with gathering items into special locations, be it a garden, zoo, or museum, for observation. I still have yet to figure out exactly what this project seeks to achieve, or what form it'll take but currently it is photo based; as a trained photographer, so many things for me begin with photographs. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I know, I know, if you follow this blog you are thinking 'she went to the <a href="http://www.conservatoryofflowers.org/">Conservatory of Flowers</a> <i>again</i>?!' Well, yes, of course I did. Obviously, I love it there and I find it interesting how there is always something new to discover. I also try to challenge myself to make new/different photos each time I go to develop and push myself in this aspect of my art. Plus, I have several project ideas floating around in my note book and my head that would put these images to use. Until those ideas develop more, here is a new suite of images from my latest trip to the <a href="http://www.conservatoryofflowers.org/">Conservatory of Flowers</a>, all taken using the <a href="http://hipstamatic.com/">Hipstamatic</a> app with the Bruno lens and Gotland film. The color pop is a result of levels adjusting and color balancing in <a href="http://www.photoshop.com/">Photoshop</a>. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Because I am someone that likes, or maybe 'needs' is the correct word, to be busy, when things slow down between work, teaching, and the <a href="http://neonsprinklesstudio.etsy.com/">little business</a>, I've been known to pick up a bit of freelance work. In addition to a couple of custom French linkstitch bindings, I've had the pleasure to also bind a couple final projects for local art students. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">{all content, design, layout, etc. is solely the property of, and copyright belongs to, the artist listed in the caption of the image it explains.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I know, I know, it's been a terribly long time since there has been anything new up on this blog. Apologies! Among other things, I was changing jobs, trying to get a promotion (which worked!), focusing on expanding my teaching, and just making lots and lots of things. I am now in the process of (slowly) editing the photos of many of those things I made and did and found so expect more frequent posts. This first one is just a quick collection of a few of the books that I made in the past year. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I have always been drawn to plants and flowers. I am sure there are a million reasons why, from my childhood love of climbing trees to read books among the branches, to my high school education at an agricultural school. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">While wandering through the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers (yet again) I began scheming a new small photo book/zine idea incorporating quotes and writing about plants, flowers, and growing with my photographs. The idea has a long way to go but here I'm doing a bit of exploring. </span><br />
