Dang funny. dang funny … forces me to buy yarn. Forced I am. (*****)- Ken Cuthbertson: "Nobody said not to go: The life, loves and adventures of Emily Hahn."
This woman was brilliant, brilliantly funny, brilliantly adventuresome. Congo in 1930, Shanghai and Hong Kong from 1935 - 1943. Graduated with a degree in mining engineering in 1926. Went on to write for the New Yorker magazine under Harold Ross's editorship. (*****) Thomas Hoving: Making the Mummies Dance : Inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art
- Douglas J. Preston: Dinosaurs in the Attic: An Excursion into the American Museum of Natural History
Dated, but what could be funnier - 30 ton meteorites on the skids, or fossil shenanigans? (****) - Simon Garfield: Mauve: How One Man Invented a Color That Changed the World
These are the dyes I'm more familiar with. And no, I haven't read "Blue", yet. (*****) Amy Butler Greenfield: A Perfect Red
Color and bugs. What's not to like? (*****)

It's here … Open Studios.

We also got a plug on the Simbiartic blog over at the Scientific American website. How cool is that?
Thank you so much Kalliopi!
Caiming Cheung, fiercely talented and so much fun to work with, has joined me this year and is showing her works in metals, precious and not. Beautiful things.
T Gould has chimed in to fill the soundwaves in the room. A 360˚ experience here at Agouti Studios.
There are a bunch of new works showing this year and the installations look great. Come see!

Socks
- I am a sock machine. Not that I churn them out, no, but in the way I wear them, multiple pairs at a time when on location, with toe warmers. Love me some wind chill. Warm ankles go a long way towards happiness.
Bugs
- Sometimes they're drawn or painted. Sometimes they're 3-d and scrunchy. They belong on the ground and are made to play with.
