Another print just added, ‘Once.’  If you are in the Portland area, the original paintings of these new pieces, as well as a few others, are now available at Noun.  I am so excited to be showing there!  They carry an amazing selection of really, really great stuff and as a bonus St. Cupcake resides in the back!

look at me, three posts in one day.  Every summer, our kids beg, beg, beg for a tree house.  The problem, we don’t have a tree.  Look at these!  Make it a little larger and add some indoor plumbing and I’d live in it!Worapong Manupipatpong found via ohdeeoh
