I don’t know about the rest of you creative folks out there, but finding a balance between art-making, marketing and admin is sometimes the hardest job of all. I love making the art, but without the marketing and the admin, it’ll never go out the door. I get torn between love of one thing and [...]

It’s one of those cool, damp end of March days. The kind where sitting inside drinking hot apple cider and reading books feels like the right course of action. It also suits my somewhat crabby mood. I’ve been feeling overwhelmed the past few weeks. First I took a week to finish the new site, and [...]

I’ve decided to start this blog, not, ironically enough because all artists need a blog these days. I’ve known that for months. I had one for a while, but forgot about it so often that I eventually deleted it, as it seemed pretty pointless. This blog will be different. This blog will actually have a [...]
