Dumbbox Display

Here, classic produce packing boxes are recreated in fresh wood and used as a very simple means of display. Their simplicity belies a certain versatility, and their lack of handles keeps them off the farm.

Design Room/The Ecology Center

Design Room


We're putting together a timeline/educational/inspirational display in The Ecology Center's design studio. The room itself is an educational space that accommodates a variety of uses including teaching on a blackboard, workshops, luncheons, hanging out and design consulting. The space is intended as a studio where in the future design/construction/landscape/sustainabilty professionals will have office hours to consult local residents on private projects. The room is in a house from the 1870s on one of Orange County's last working farms (South Coast Farms), the house being the domain of The Ecology Center.

I Am Summer Camp

i am an old lady

june 20 - june 17, 2007

old ladies paint. i think i do too. on the above dates i am participating in paint san clemente, a plein air painting competition focused on painting the city of san clemente, ca. i've participated in this twice, and am usually pretty cool for doing it. i even got an honorable mention once, just don't call me an old lady!

fyi: "plein air" translates literally as "full air" but is used to mean outdoors and has come to represent a whole genre of painting. mostly pretty boring painting if you're not an old lady, but people usually think it's pretty so...

so today i cut my finger off. no not really, but i did slice a little chunk off the tip!! haha, i was cutting some glass and got a little too excited and, voila, impromptu plastic surgery! hmmm, someone should do some rearch on this, maybe a hidden market? well, i guess band-aid probably has that one cornered. and psychologists... then i made bandage out of blue masking tape which turned into a little blood filled sac. what did you get yourself into?? glass cutting IS exciting. i broke pretty much a whole sheet yesterday, then i got excited and got to break it some more. woohoo. oh, and my grandma leaves on saturday. wierd. beach party!

NOTE: this pictures is not actually of my finger, i don't think it was that bad actually but it was a while ago and i didn't have a camera then.  picture was found in a google image search and is from http://www.yourpalchrismal.com/.
