Reflection by Ingrid Siliakus

I've been fascinated by origami, papercraft and paper sculptures for quite some time and I can't say that I've been quite so impressed by a paper sculpture before. I adore this piece. This gorgeous paper sculpture by Ingrid Siliakus is available from Once Upon A fold.

Sundance Film Festival Gift Lounge: The Photos!

You may remember that I sent one of my colorful cassette tapes poster prints to be displayed at the Sundance Film Festival gift lounge a while back.
(If you don't, click here to read the previous Sundance post!)
Well, now you can see the photos of celebrities who were kind enough to stop by the Indie Exhibit table to check out the art, be photographed, and pick up a gift bag filled with goodies including some of my greeting cards and mini buttons!

Photos 1 and 2 - Members of the grammy nominated and internationally successful band OneRepublic featuring Eddie Fisher, Drew Brown and Ryan Tedder with Brent Kutzle holding my print.

Photos 3 and 4 - The incredibly talented actress America Ferrera with Indie Exhibit rep Nikki Cutro standing in front of the table with my print. America has starred in Ugly Betty, How To Train Your Dragon, Our Family Wedding, The Dry Land and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

Photo 5 - Kevin Sorbo holding one of the Indie Exhibit goodie bags with rep Nikki Cutro! Kevin Sorbo is best known for his roles in Hercules, Xena: Warrior Princess and Andromeda.

All of the celebrities listed above received some of my art in the gift bags as well as many others who aren't pictured here including: James Kyson Lee (Heroes), Creed Bratton (The Office), Oprah, Finola Hughes (All My Children, General Hospital), Michael Vartan (Alias), Richard Kline (Three's Company), Sam Rubin (KTLA Morning News), Taylor Armstrong (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), Jeremy Ray Valdez (The Rookie: CTU) and last but not least Olivia Crocicchia (Rescue Me).

Sundance Film Festival Gift Lounge

Update: Click here to see the Sundance Film Festival gift lounge celebrity photos!

In January some of my products will be included in some bags at the gift lounge for the Sundance Film Festival! I'm very excited and kind of exhausted. I packaged some of my greeting cards with tons of buttons featuring my colorful cassette tapes and colorful rainbow skull designs that I made with the buttonmaker I got for Christmas.
My art print for the display table is also framed and ready to go. You can see it (and a bunch of other pictures I took while I was putting everything together) below!

A big thanks to The IndiExhibit, the group I'm participating with, for making it possible!

Small Art Update

I haven't posted many of my own art-y things in the past while but that should change soon.

Sneak Preview: I also have some fun new products coming out including ornaments, iPhone cases and iPad cases featuring my designs!
Expect them in the next couple weeks!

Just wanted to let you all know that I am still creating!

Eco Nation DIY Universal Eco Speakers

I picked up these cardboard Eco Nation DIY Universal Eco Speakers tonight while I was out and they're pretty neat! They're made from 70% post consumer recycled material. The sound quality isn't perfect but they'll make great emergency backup speakers. I can hardly wait to decorate them. :)

The Deep by Edward Fields

This carpet by Edward Fields is named "the Deep" and features carpet of different heights and shades of blue and green to create a look reminiscent of the ocean.

Edward Fields, who was known as the bespoke carpet designer to stars like Princess Grace of Monaco and Mary Tyler Moore from the 1950s to the 1970s, considered his rugs art for the floor. Although the late designer’s company was purchased by Tai Ping carpets two years ago, it remains true to his vision.

Leaf Art

If you need something to remind you of the beauty of autumn, these gorgeous cut leaves should do the trick!
