I haven't knit a Monstapus in awhile. To remedy that, I knit three! All of them are staring at me and they are all adorable. Too cute, really. But I'm their mom and my judgement may be a little biased.

All three Monstapi will be available to purchase at my next show on September 8th at the Buffalo Central Wharf. It goes 10-5!

Now... What else should I make this week?

I always welcome custom orders! If you see anything you like feel free to email me. I can make you any monster your heart desires. This guy belongs to Kenzie and will be in the mail tomorrow! Just wait to you all see what I'm working on for Margaret!

What a beautiful day at the waterfront! Thanks to everyone who came out to the Saturday Artisan Market today. And hello to any new fans that I met today! See you again September 8th!

One: We will be back at the waterfront this Saturday from 10-5 as part of the Buffalo Artisan Market. Last week was cancelled because of high winds, but this week should be nicer. Right now the forecast is low 70s, mostly sunny and a light breeze. Sounds good to me! Come on down!

Two: I've been teaching some summer camps and this week we've done a lot of weaving. The kids LOVE it. We got funky and have been trying radial weaving which just means knitting around and around in a circle. I thought they looked lovely in the center of my freshly picked sunflowers.

Three: I'm getting together my fall/holiday schedule for shows. Stay tuned!

Four: The monsters love you. <3

I just finished another custom pet drawing. I'm super happy with how this drawing turned out. It's already framed up and looks really polished. I can't wait to deliver it!

If you like it and are interested, I'd be happy to draw your pet too. Information is on the PORTRAIT INFO tab up top. 

Today I finally picked my knitting needles up after taking a break to teach art to some awesome kids at Fine Arts Camp! I definitely have a lot of knitting to do in the next week to catch up. The next show is August 11th at the Buffalo Waterfront so that gives me a week to restock! Work work work.

I wanted to share some sketches that I did of camper's pets. I let them bring in pictures of their dogs and did quick drawings of their animals. They were fun to do... even if I was working in Crayola colored pencils instead of my usual Prismacolors and Faber Castel artist pens. The campers made awesome artwork too! I am super proud of them and already looking forward to next summer. Fine Arts Camp is definitely a fun two weeks for both th
