Mis Nopales Art

Jose Pulido is obviously having great fun creating his series of Calavera (Spanish for skull) characters. Much of his work takes the form of Gocco prints and T-Shirts.

Altered Ceramics

Bunny With A Chainsaw from Snew

The craft of creatively combining ceramic molds into new visual statements is something I discovered shortly after joining the world of Etsy. If David Lynch had a Victorian parlor, I can imagine his curio cabinet chock full of these. (Maybe he does!)

Etsy Dallas Spring Bash

(Moments before the doors opened, the only two clear shots of the set up for the next 6 hours.)

Last Saturday we were a part of the annual Etsy Dallas Spring Bash. We scored a great spot in the gallery space. It turned out to be a tremendous day with a steady stream of customers, new contacts from some great people and loads of sales. Word is the line started at 8 AM for the official 11 AM opening, all for a chance to receive a limited number of giveaway bags. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a great day.

We were so busy for most of the day, I was only able to get away from the booth to take a couple of shots of the area towards the end. Earlier it was elbow to elbow.

We Are 1976

There’s a fantastic shop here in Dallas by the name of “We Are 1976.” They are set uniquely apart from 99% of the retail stores in the area by offering a wonderfully uncommon blend of artist made goods, books, art and toys. In addition, the owners Vynsie, Jully and Derek host a variety of workshops with artists that teach a range of techniques, from  learning bookbinding structures, screen printing and paper sculptures, just to name a few. Be sure and visit their site for a showcase of gift offerings and a schedule of art openings and workshop events. I’m proud to be a part of their inventory with my monkey and literary pets cigarette card sets.

Be sure and pay them a visit if you live in or plan to visit the Dallas area.
