Indie Genius party last night.

Last night our friends over at Indie Genius had a soft opening of their new concept store. Indie Genius was created as a response to the public's demand for a more permanent Urban Street Bazaar. The shop is filled with awesome and we're really excited to be a part of it.

Here's a shot our booth. It includes both Dylan and my work, as we have now decided to move forward as one art business in the upcoming months: Dowdy Studio. Big changes are coming, but more on that later, let's get back to Indie Genius....

We were happy to run into some of our Etsy Dallas freinds! One Up Designs, Three Yellow Starfish and Cut Out and Collect. After this pic we had a 10 min group hug and a high-five off.

One-Up's sweet space. Includes loads of vinyl decals, humorous pencils and always cool artwork.

Maggie May I's school room look charmed the crowd.

Tefi's booth picture is suffering from My iphone Camera-itis. But it looks really really pretty in real life. Promise! Her new fabric art pieces are amazingly cute!

Right as you walk in you see this beautiful boutique for Three Yellow Starfish! It looks so perfect and sweet!

For more info on Indie Genius, stop by their website, or sign up for their mailing list, so you can get updates on the store. Can't wait for the Grand Opening!!! I hope to see you there!

We went and got ourselves all married and stuff

Hey gang!

Sorry my postings have gotten a little sparse. We've been busy! My honey, Dylan and I finally tied the marrital knot and are living the happy bliss of married life.

But don't worry, I'm now back in action and ready for a heavy load of holiday shows. Check out the awesome line up on the right of my blog. I'm excited for each and every show and I hope you can make it out there to come say hello.

Now, back to your regular scheduled programming!

Urban Street Bazaar + Pamela Michelle

I decided to sit out this Urban Street Bazaar so that I could focus on marrying my sweetheart, Dylan. I was incredibly bummed to miss out because the Urban Street Bazaar is one fun handmade street festival. It takes place 2-3 times a year in the Bishop Arts District in Dallas. With anywhere from 50 - 95 handmade artists selling in the streets and live music and all the cool shop in B.A.D., this show is not to be missed. Especially this one, because it is the LAST ONE!!!

WHAT!

LAST ONE!?!? :(

Well, after crying for hours and soaking up my tears over missing the last Urban Street Bazaar, I saw a little glimmer of happiness. Julie, the owner of Make in B.A.D., and the producer of the Urban Street Bazaar asked if I could design a poster for the last show.

HELLS YAH!

So I said yes.

So, I can't be at the show, but I can be there living through my poster artwork in spirit. yay!

Learn more about the Urban Street Bazaar here. I highly recommend you go!

NUOK feature

I did a fun interview a few months ago with an Italian online publication, NUOK, which features artists and all things New York. Ok, so I'm not really from the Big Apple, but I have been there a few times and love it. Read the full article here and see what I recommend you do on your next trip to NY.

I've been FFFFound!!

I screamed with excitement yesterday when one of my friends notified me that my Double Vision print was on ffffound.com. Being one of my favorite websites to browse daily, I'm super thrilled to see my little nerdy love birds on it too! Yay!

I miss this.

Believe it or not, this covered Texas just 6 months ago. Now we're stuck in the 95-105 degree range.
