Saturday night my husband and I drove up to Chinatown in L.A. with our good friend Matt for the "release party" of a group art project I participated in. "Box of Books Vol.5" was organized by Darin Klein & Friends. (Darin's a curator at L.A.'s Hammer Museum)
20 creators were each asked to make 100 copies of a little reversible booklet using 11"x17" paper and a clever cutting and folding technique. Subject matter was totally up to the creators.

| The Weirdling Woods (I sign each one by hand in magical silver ink) |
I chose to use this opportunity to work with a project I've been noodling with for years. An illustrated children's fantasy story called
The Weirdling Woods.

That's all you get, as far as a peek at The Weirdling Woods. I'll be selling them online for $5 each through my Etsy shop:
HERE. (Give me until about 11/7/'12 to get it listed, por favor)

| Sales table, people, a dog... |

| More people, and that freeloader dog is still there... (I don't think it even purchased Box of Books Vol.5) |

| The foyer of the facility was draped with black ribbons, a visual theme that was carried throughout the place. |
