Kelly Lynn Jones
I’m a big fan of Kelly Lynn Jones. Read my interview with her here.

She contributed to the love book earlier this month as well. I had the privilege of visiting her in her studio last summer in San Francisco. Not only is she studying to receive an MFA but she’s also the proprietress of the popular Little Paper Planes shop, where my prints are available.

I don’t know where she find the time to do all of her amazing collages, zines, and paintings.

The one above is totally new and is acrylic and ink on raw stretched canvas, it’s 12 x 16in. relatively small compared with the paintings I saw in her studio, I was surprised by their large scale including the buildings above, that are actually on big canvases.

She will be updating her site soon with lots of new work. I can’t wait to see. I’ll keep you posted too. Consider this a sneak peek till then…

50 People, One Question “If you could wake up anywhere tomorrow, where would it be?”


Fifty People, One Question: Brooklyn from Fifty People, One Question on Vimeo.
I love this video series. 50 people in one place are asked the same question “If you could wake up anywhere tomorrow where would it be?”.

Here’s what the makers say:

“Once upon a time, we awoke with a new question on our mind. We didn’t quite know what the buzz and bustle of a Brooklyn afternoon would bring. In search of nothing more than some fresh answers, we found a few dreams instead.

It’s a simple question and the answers can lead us anywhere. So go ahead, ask yourself…”

So what about you dear readers? Where would it be? My husband and I both thought of answers and then told each other. We had the same one, anywhere the other was…then Paris.

Want to see what folks in London said?
