1) Art show mounting, opening and reception
2) Sketchbook due for ArtHouse
3) Lucky FABB Conference
Any one of the above is major. All three simultaneously? YIKES!
Here is an overview from my Tumblr archives (a great way to get a quick read on one's life-in-instagram, btw, if you happen have a Tumblr and tick "on" to the Tumblr option in Instagram [IG] and don't do much else on Tumblr... and... did I lose you there?)
 |
| Some pix are out of order, some loaded in may... ah, internet! |
 |
| To Do list, Sunday morning |
 |
| Hanging art show |
 |
| Mr Lou sums it up |
 |
| Linework in Illustrator for Rocquelle of Consider Me Lovely |
 |
| In the evening, I let myself out for fresh air and watched a beautiful sunset. |
 |
| At 8am, I removed 7 pages from the book because I knew there was no way I could get them finished in time. That's Kiah's [of From the "REZ" To the "CITY"] page, pre bling. At the bottom, you can see my chart of steps, I kept on track with it. |
 |
| 9:30am Qi Gong break in Clover Park to fortify myself for the day |
 |
| Another ArtHouse project came in, I ignored it (and missed the deadline) Very apt quote, however! |
 |
| Diya's [of In Her Stilettos] pages printed, pre bling |
 |
| I took a break from the computer and sewed my outfit for the reception. I worked under a stern taskmaster. |
 |
| Meyer lemons and mint from the garden for the reception spa water |
 |
| Picked up my MOO business cards at the PO en route to class (yes, had to teach, along with everything else) |
 |
| Here's a snap of my blog post about my reception look. No instagrams from reception (distracted) |
 |
| Decided I wanted a metallic cover on the book. I'd found some silver spray paint in Severo's stash... did NOT find a flat head screwdriver to remove the cap. |
 |
| It took a lot longer than expected to get to this point where paint emerged |
 |
| At noon, there was a Lucky FABB kick-off brunch (again distracted/ no coverage = no IGs) When I was walking back to my car, I thought the above was a cute purple maxi dress hung out for a yard sale... that's when I realized my blogger immersion was complete - it's ice plant! |
 |
| There was a FABB shopping safari on Abbot Kinney, which I opted out of... I DID go over there, however... I'd gotten the brilliant notion my Monday conference outfit needed silver clogs to complete the look. But Zingara's silver clogs were "try on for size for ordering" only. Nooooo! In the end, I worked my self into an acquisitional frenzy and got these floral sandals |
 |
| Rocquelle's pages finished at 4pm |
 |
| List with more checkmarks -- progress! |
 |
| By 5pm, I'd finished the flat coloring for La Dama [of Vintage Passiones Like Mine] Yes, I was allowed to go to the FABB cocktail party on Melrose |
 |
| Shot an IG at the party, used the hashtag, and my shot showed up in the LuckyMag.com feed! Then home and back to work... |
 |
| La Dama's pages done by 1am |
 |
| Erin's [of Design for Mankind] pages done by 2am!!!! SKETCHBOOK DONE! |
 |
| Here's the sketchbook joining the mail stream at the PO @ 7:30 am Deadline met! On the the conference! |
 |
| My bracelets, badge, and card holder thing |
 |
| Bloggers! |
 |
| I'd sketch, then shoot IGs of the sketches This one is of Zac Posen and Brandon Holley |
 |
| For lasting all the way to the end of this post, I present you with a beautiful cake! This was in the LeSportsac booth It was created by Vanilla Bake Shop in Santa Monica |
