Here's a simple excercise that I like to do before starting a new creative project. It's easy, set a timer for 5 minutes, and use each individual shape to create a new object [I tend to make lots of flowers and animals].
Please share your results. I would love to post them if you'll let me!

Jennifer Mills is:
a) my neighbor
b) other half of Little Spark
c) an amazing performance artist
d) all of the above
Yes, the correct answer is "d" all of the above.
Two weeks ago I watched her gracefully maneuver through a whimsical maze of lovely dangling items in a piece she calls "Urban Harvest" in the Body Politic. In three days, she'll performing the piece again at the Galerie Kollaborativ in Berlin.

Some girls like shoes, I like glasses. In the past three years I've purchased five pairs all from HeidiOptics. HeidiOptics, located in downtown Pittsburgh, is my favorite place to shop for eye wear because they have a huge selection of designer frames from around the world, plus a pretty vast vintage collection too. The next time you need to get framed consider Heidi.

I am not being dramatic. When my friend sent me a text message about Michael Jackson's death, time seemed to stand still and it was hard to breath. I was so sad. It felt to me, that the world lost a little of it's magic with the death of this creative genius. From the moves to the iconic clothing to the writing, this man who lived the most public life, was able to exceed expectations in every creative zone that he entered. I hope you will exchange any judgments for respect, admiration, and for a daydream about the creative mark that you'd like to leave behind in honor of MJ.
