Here is what I sent out for September’s Project Dispatch:

“my blanket is my island”; ink & brushpen on watercolor paper; 9 x 12″

Aaaand speaking of Project Dispatch, Chandi  & Frank did such a lovely job at Hampdenfest. This is me inside the PD tent at Hampdenfest, staring at the green line that my phone camera always adds to every photo:

This month so far has turned out to be a rather busy one, full of cats (well, one cat) & school & work & drawing & breaking in new shoes & scratching at insect bites.  Tomorrow, for instance, on Sept. 17th, I’ll be at the Contemporary Museum in Baltimore furiously drawing from 7:30 to 8:30pm.

I like drawing a lot & I like art events, but I’m not a person who likes to be a busy bee (I’m one of those people who likes to drink tea and likes to drink that tea slowly). So, it’s nice in this tender month of feeling busy-ish to get something GLORIOUS in the mail and get to spend some time out drinking tea and reading zines.  YES TO ZINES! (zines by Anna + a Stanley Lieber comic I lent to Anna a couple of years ago).  YES TO SCRUNCHIES (made by Anna and Mika)!  YES TO ANNA!  College friends turned Japan-dwelling turned mail friends are the best.
