Headed Down to Cali!

30 Sep

Today, Mr. Forager & I are packing up and early Monday morning, we’ll be leaving Coeur d’Alene, ID, our home for the last ten months, for a new adventure in Joshua Tree, CA. We’ll be hanging in SoCal until mid- January and I’m looking forward to bringing you lots of new adventures in artsiness! We’re taking our time on the way down to do a little camping and visiting with friends in San Diego.

While I’m away, I thought you might enjoy some reruns of what have ( so far! ) been the most popular Artsy Forager posts. There’ll be some peppering of new stuff, too– we’ll change over to a new Facebook Featured Artist and a couple of new Artist Watches for Escape Into Life!

I’ll check in occasionally, especially once we hit San Diego. Love and Artsiness!

Is it crazy? I feel sad that you’re moving farther from Vancouver, and our chances of meeting are lessened. Ah well, I can still enjoy you on the internets! Have a great trip Lesley.

  We hope to get back up farther north in 2013! As much as we’re looking forward to being close to dear friends for a bit, we love the Northwest too much to stay away long! One day we’ll cross the border to visit, M.A.!

Friday Design Finds: Palette + Plate

I’m a firm believer that the beauty of objects we use every day enhances our simple daily rituals. That doesn’t mean every meal should be eaten off Royal Dalton china with fine silver, but we do eat with our eyes as much as our mouths, so why not help even the most ordinary of meals […]
Without Guile: Catriona Miller

There is so much cynicism to be had in this world, that sweetness and innocence seem to get lost in the shuffle. What drew me to the work of Scottish artist Catriona Miller is its charming purity. Her figures gaze coyly to the side, just a hint of a smile on their lips. It’s as […]
Drops of Jupiter and Other Cosmicness: William Loveless

In the book I’m currently reading, The Opposite of Fate, author Amy Tan writes a great deal about the concept of fate, how much of what happens is in our own control or predetermined or even mere chance? In that same vein, how much control does an artist truly have in the creative process? Yucca […]
Artsy on Escape Into Life: Sarah Johanna Eick

While most of the time I’m drawn to saturated “happy” color, occasionally my soul calls out for a little moody darkness. So when I laid my eyes upon the work of photographer Sarah Johanna Eick at The Red Arrow Gallery here in Joshua Tree, the quiet power in the work took hold of me and […]
Mod Scene: Gary Peterson

I grew up around Mid-Century culture way before it was hipster cool. No, I’m not old enough to have experienced it first hand! But my dad did and we were heavily involved in a 1950s classic car club, one that celebrated mod style by restoring vintage cars, showing them off and even putting on the […]
