The next step

I've taken some photos of the typed and handwritten personal accounts derived from my bank account statements with my iPhone. When I read these statements (from five years ago) it was amazing how many memories, some extremely vivid, came flooding back. I decided to create little memory passages, first typed formally, then handwritten in a journal format. The iPhone photos were an experiment in taking the handwritten account back to digital again, continuing this layered, cyclic relationship between digital and analog. They turned out kind of pleasing to the eye, and I enjoy the somewhat fuzzy, colour-simplified tones it created. I am thinking of taking one (especially the notebook one) and turning it into a drawing or painting...

Cheeseburgers are taking over my life

I'm selling these catnip cheeseburger toys at Puces POP Montreal next weekend and the production of them (sewing, sewing, and more sewing) is consuming all of my spare time...more posts - school related - to come!

These little devils take about 35-45 minutes to make each


An ad I made for the printed POP Montreal directory:

I really need to make a real website

I even have Dreamweaver on my computer but I don't really know how to use it. Sad, I know. It's like the mandolin hanging on my wall that I haven't figured out how to play yet. Anyway for now I have a Facebook "Fan" page featuring all of the things I make: drawings, jewelry, crafts, knitted items, whathaveyou. So you can check it out here to see what kinda stuff I do....
