Cady Wire: Saplings + Cover Art
I just received word that Cady Wire has released their Saplings album for digital download. I did this cover art back in 2009 and I’m glad that the album is finally able to grace the public’s ears. Go preview it yourself and purchase your copy here: cadywire.bandcamp.com.
I also received word that Cady Wire has undergone some major changes over the last couple years, and Sam & Nila, two of the original band members, are now part of Goodbye Heart. I met these folks back in our NYC days, and we all dispersed across the country around the same time: I, to the midwest, and they, to Seattle. I’m looking forward to hearing the new sounds. Keep up with them on Facebook here: www.facebook.com/GoodbyeHeartBand.
At the End of the Day – Cut Paper Art

Holy Moly
I’m not leaving my desk for the next six days as I prepare for my trip to Des Moines, Denver, Colorado City, and Boulder… Being this busy and booked for so many out of town shows in a row is new for me, and I’m figuring out that I did not prepare myself nearly enough during the slower months at the beginning of the year. So now, my fingers are burning rubber as I cut and cut and cut…
Sky Over the Flint Hills
I’ve found that one of the prettiest times to drive through the Kansas Flint Hills is at sunrise… During my drive back from the art fest in Salina this time around, it was a bit cloudy and rainy, but the sky was photo worthy nonetheless.

Smoky Hill River Festival 2011 Recap
Last weekend I went to Salina, KS, to exhibit at the Smoky Hill River Festival. I had a pretty great time! I didn’t take a lot of photos, but I’ve got a few to show you… Before I do, here’s some of the highlights:
1. The weather was PERFECT all three days. There was a bit of rain on Sunday morning, but it was nothing to complain about.. Maybe even washed some of the dust off my tent!
2. I got to hang out with William and Olga, owners of Wood Fashion Cafe in Salina, at their farm house, and eat their delicious cooking. Many animals to admire and photograph..
3. My mom, who went with me, got up both nights that we ate dinner at Wood Fashion Cafe and sang along with a couple guitar players during open mic hour. (I did the rooster that is part of the logo — seen below– for the restaurant last year!)
4. I met the ladies of The Good Lovelies, a Toronto-based harmonious trio, who were both good and lovely! And now I own one of their cd’s, and they left with some of my art as well.
5. I had some of the best art fair neighbors ever and really enjoyed chatting with them all weekend. And now I own some of their work, which includes a hand thrown tumbler with the most beautiful glaze, and some hand carved wooden utensils, walnut to be exact, to go in it. I’ve been in the process of outfitting the house I’m moving into in August, and the kitchen seems to be the only room I’ve really paid attention to! Dinner parties to come…
Anyway, here’s a few photos…
