Since I’ve been doing this 365 cup series I’ve consumed a lot of coffee. I’ve also learned a lot about coffee and some days I feel like I’m in the coffee maze. Soon I will be adding other beverages to my daily mix.
Lost in the coffee maze! Since I’ve been doing this 365 cup series I’ve consumed a lot of coffee. I’ve also learned a lot about coffee and some days I feel like I’m in the coffee maze. Soon I will be adding other beverages to my daily mix.
There are so many things to love about Paris, but I’ve chosen a few of the civic niceties that make the streets of Paris pleasant for me. More to come in this vein. Vive Paris!

It’s a big day here! My advance reading copy of How to Sell Your Art Online arrived!
This book by Cory Huff shares everything we need to know to make a success of our art online. I was honored and delighted to be the illustrator for this book. It was a great way to silence my inner critic who doubted my ability to make money from my art.
I took it as a sweet nudge from the universe that I was hired to illustrate a book all about how to make money from art. Get your copy of How to Sell Your Art Online here.
Mia at Two Hands Paperie in Boulder asked me if I could provide a sample journal for my Journal Juju class there. I didn’t want to release one of my own notebooks, so I made a counter-offer.
I’d pick up a Moleskine Japanese Album and see how much of it I could fill in two hours. Using the methods and exercises I teach in my Journal Juju class, I’d see how far I could go.
Now, my class is NOT about speed or competition or doing anything quickly. It’s about slowing down, enjoying what’s around us, and using all of our senses to record that in a little notebook. It’s fun. It’s easy. It’s play and it doesn’t require art skills.
I just thought it would be fun to see how far I could go in two hours, and I filmed myself playing in the notebook at The Kitchen Next Door in Boulder. Here’s the video, speeded up for the sake of time.
The next Journal Juju classes at Two Hands Paperie are on March 16th and April 7th, 2013. These classes fill quickly, so call Two Hands Paperie to register today: (303) 444-0124
Don’t worry; we won’t be rushing or trying to fill the notebook during the class. We’ll be slowing down, tuning in, and having a great time together.
