(The alternative title to this blog was “Hung” but I drew the line there.) I literally bolted upright at 4am, realizing that we had mis-measured the canvas stretchers for the large new canvas.   Basically, it’s tricky to do and/or explain but we were measuring them as though they were fra...

Really, the perfect thing to see on 1/1/12 when you’re getting ready for your art install in 2 days. Banksy is a genius. And it’s both appalling and inspiring to see the entire Emperor’s New Clothes Aspect of Art. (And totally fun).  

So many projects today. I’ve never stretched any of my canvases before –– I just sent them to my amazing, top secret Chinatown place –– but now that I have four poster-sized ones to stretch for January 3rd, it’s time I learned (the 2 much larger ones I’m thrilled to say are being hung by ...

The world feels pretty sleep on this day before Christmas Eve, although Belle and I have been working away. We started with a morning yoga client (at 9:30 –- Thank God –– not 6 am), walking there together in the rain. Later in the day, however, the little dog started limping as we exited my car for a trip ...

My juicer is astonishing.  I honestly can’t imagine life without it. It makes such incredibly delicious, healthy drinks and lets you feel virtuous (aka smug) at the same time. Early morning client, followed by magazine interview, then 8:30 am nap. And –– in honor of 12/21 –R...

There’s going to be no stopping my relationship with green juice. My juicer arrived this morning and it’s amazing.  So easy to use and simple. I have dim memories of using a friend’s juicer 15 years ago and it was IMPOSSIBLE to clean.  It literally felt like it took 30 minutes to wash it....

Today it suddenly became overwhelmingly necessary that I organize my toiletries better and so a trip to Ikea was called for. I met John there and –– even though somehow it was weirdly complicated to get the cabinet not off the floor or in the large item section, but that I had to get an employee to do the ...

I made a simple yet profound discovery about Final Draft tonight. I knew it had various templates for screenplays and also for stage plays, but once you select one you are seemingly stuck. Then, however, I realized that you can just manually adjust the five or six pre-set formats (like CHARACTER or DIALOGU...

I participated in the global meditation today at 6:30 pm PST via the Master Shift with many thousands of others across the globe. And I thoroughly enjoyed it –– although I’m not sure if I felt any particular 12/12/12 magic, beyond that it was also Adrian and Tevis’ birthday. I take that back: ...
