i updated my websites banner today. now, this was no small feat. i had to contact the web designers to see where in the hell i even started. i had to go deep into the programming, but now that i see where that all is kept on the server it isn't such a mystery. i don't know why it is showing up so small here, but it is full sized on the site. anyway, i like it. it was an hour pain in my ass but i am pleased that i know just *a little* more about web design that i knew this morning! that ftp or whatever was just a tad confusing to the untrained person. :) just a tad. ha. feel free to visit and tell me what you think.

let's see, what else. oh if you are in the portland oregon area here is where you can find me in november and december:

there is one more place i will be showing, more info to come on that. a couple years ago i did a gallery exhibit for wearable art in sacramento. it was weird, i sold a bunch of little felt pins like burnt toast and crazed bunnies. but this year they have a wearable art/glass catagory and my glass pendants would be perfect. :) i love having my stuff in sacto, but not *actually* having to be there. what a great trade off!
