Hello, friends! Here's a little bit about life right now:
Dresses!! It has been in the 90s+ around here and so I have been looooving dresses.
What have you bought?
This has not been a big shopping month. We are trying to save our money for the house and the baby. Most of what I've bought is food…
Man, I love food! This is breakfast at Cafe Landwer.
What are you reading?
I finished "Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows" at the beginning of the month and it has stayed with me.
I bought it in an airport book store because the title was so compelling. It was really well written.
And speaking of reading, I also shared my kindle confession on instagram last week:
Current art crush?
Polina Oshu or oshupatterns on instagram.
I love this video because I was shocked by the scale of the books:
I love this video because I had always assumed these patterns were made with paint (wrong!):
Aren't these fabulous?! Her work makes me want to grab a little notebook and make patterns! I love following artists who inspire me to be creative, don't you?
So, there you have it! That's the scoop on life around here at the moment.
Thanks for stopping by!

Julie, YOU are my inspiration and have been for several years. you wake me up every morning. This blog was very inspirational…loved the patterns.
Books are books. Just like our ART sometimes it’s just for fun.
sometimes readingshouldbe ‘light’ just for fun, is it not a book.
If our art is just for fun and not a ‘masterpiece’ is it not art.
Your comments like this about the books MAKE US THINK (inspiration).
keep us thinking and inspiring us. THANKS!

Great post with lots of creative juice. I got lost in the patterns and also in the great willow stickwork creations of Patrick Dougherty (pictured behind you). Thanks for introducing both artists. I used to draw and color lots of patterns and also design them on Photoshop but just stopped. I’ve got to start again. I’ve also got to pull your book out and get back to carving stamps. Thanks for all the inspiration Julie.
