changes.


So, I've realized that updating a blog is number 2345213 on my giant list of things to do, hence the sparseness of the summer.

A few changes have occurred in the month of non-blogging:

1. New job - working at 3M in the renewable energy division testing the backsheet of solar panels. I actually love it. I've enjoyed everyday I've been there so far, even though it gets overwhelming at times. Hopefully this will lead to something bigger and better...

2. New house - we're moving to a beautiful victorian home in St. Paul that has a gigantic backyard (perfect for an energetic puppy) and a beautiful view of downtown and the river. Moving in September 1st!

3. New business - I'm working on an etsy site to sell some of my old ceramic stuff, plus all my hair pins! More details as soon as they're available.

And finally, I leave you with some pictures of the final installation I did at school. I hung the tiny pinch pots from the ceiling using an invisible thread. The room had a gentle breeze blowing through when the doors opened, which caused them to swing and spin in tiny circles. I wish I had taken a video of the shadows that were created on the floor below, the slip trailing caused a unexpected yet brilliant form -- as if each little group of dots were swing dancing. I'm looking forward to the next time I get to install it!
