I immediately found a typo. Let's see if you can.
Many thanks to Kari Larsen of Harrisburg Magazine for extending me the nicest interview of all time ever. What a champ.

Recircled Christmas
I have STACKS and stacks of paper left over from other projects, stolen from airplanes, gifted from old ladies' attics, found roadside, etc. These stacks, which will absolutely kill me, are also where I turn when I need to make cards. Thank YOU, circle template.
This is paper leftover from a coaster consignment for Little Amps Coffee Roasters. The original paper had come from a euro-bin in Florence. Because I'm really, really fancy.
Once, i found maps. I have no idea where. But they are a strange blend of French and German, and I have used them for a thousand different projects and will cry like a child when I come to the end of them.

Misdirection
I taught a cardboard workshop to wonderful, imaginative people in Ms. McClymont's seventh grade art class on Friday. Check out these portraits of Woody Allen. Maybe I'll try to send them to old Woody. (Probably not.)
Woody Allen drawing lesson: by Liz
by Bethany, 7th grade
by Eli, age 5.
by John, 7th grade
by Ryan, 7th grade
by Macy, 7th grade

The Verisimilitude show
Verisimilitude
(n) (or truthlikeness) is the quality of realism in something.
Midtown Cinema is celebrating its 10-year anniversary this month, and the kind folks in charge asked me to create a series of film director portraits.
So I did.
I just like going into strange worlds

All things go, all things go (Sufjan Stevens)
Some things:
1. Chicago means "wild onion" in a Native American language. It comes from "shikaakwa". Yes, it does.
2. Ashleigh Hill is one of the smartest friends I have, and I am always interested to hear what she has to say.
3. Ashleigh participated in this little project we have, and I am always grateful to see that people have done that. Feel free.
