/// my love for you interview

/// did a little interview with /// my love for you blog /// check it oot:

"i was introduced to susie wright aka suzy and the owls through julie over at analogue books (always a well of information and inspiration!). i immediately feel in love w/ her incredibly concise lines, her unique take on typography and her love of animals. susie answered some questions for me a while back. please check out her website where you can see her images in all their glory...470px just don't do justice. enjoy!"

/// what to see where opening

/// some photos from the opening party...it was so much fun, thanks to everyone who came along and to vickie again for the champaign!

unfortunately since the exhibition has been on someone has stolen 4 of my origami stags...pretty rude if you ask me but i guess some people just have no respect for how much work goes into putting on an exhibition or for the artist!

/// what to see where set up
