hello! so, i went on a lovely trip to nyc a couple of weeks ago that i'd like to tell you a little about. it had been a long time since i had been there, so it was quite nostalgic and inspiring at the same time. i stayed with my lovely cousin on the upper west side, so i got some family in there too. i spent a lot of time in the city while growing up, so though i now live in vermont, i still have a very soft spot for that crazy place. it was a little amazing to me how easy it was to shift right back into 'city-mode' after being a country mouse for so long. i liked it. it felt good. grounding.
i went on this trip for a few reasons...to check out new york design week, to hopefully get inspired to make some new things, and to research some potential new venues for my work. i saw a LOT of beautiful and inspiring work, but, of course, was mostly inspired by the city itself. here are a couple of details of a huge wall of glued keys in a crazy pattern i saw in the west village while wandering around aimlessly.
i also stopped by this GORGEOUS shop called the end of history. it was packed to the gills of beautiful and impeccably preserved glass and ceramics of all kinds. i could have moved in there, but instead i just took a bunch of pictures. many thanks to them for their generosity in that respect, because i went a little crazy. i doubt there is a better place to see so many quality pieces all together. amazing. really. love.so needless to say i got a lot of food for thought while away. there are, without a doubt, going to be some changes afoot here in the studio within the next few months. though i'm not quite ready to reveal them now, (i'm honestly not even sure what some of them are yet) stay with me, because as they become clear i will share, i promise.
and hey, i'm still blogging, so that's something! happy june!
