November was a (creative) whirlwind of a month. December has been calmer, but has still had it's moments. I've managed to find opportunities to be creative or share my creativity with others. At the beginning of December I did a local event, a kind of craft fair, I guess. I would never have thought that would have been my thing, but you know, in the future I'll be more open minded. It was a lovely day spent with local creative people (including one of my drawing buddies, Paul Gent), I sold lots of stuff (you can't knock that), I got to make a drawing (above) and there was even a pop-up Swedish caf

Really happy and stoked with how the Moleskine Project #3 came out. It’s open now at Spoke Art Gallery, San Francisco. You can see it here: http://spoke-art.myshopify.com/collections/the-moleskine-project With over 75 artworks in the show and over 60 international artists, it was a bit of a challenge for us to bring this one together. There’s some wonderful, affordable pieces still left here.
