12 July 2010 journal page

Having a great time teaching at Art Unraveled, as always. I love my students. They really are THE BEST! :D

So, I received an interesting phone call the other day. A local art shop owner emailed me and told me that the Sharpie Water-based Paint markers (NOT the ones labeled poster paint) are "test" pens being sold only at the "M" Store (you know, the big box store that I don't like to support...I like to give my business to Mom and Pops instead). It's a test run through the end of this year. Their availability is dependent upon how well they sell at the "M" store. Very interesting, indeed. Our local CA "M" store has them locked in the front in a glass case so unless you know about them...

Speaking of Mom and Pop shops, one of my favorite tape vendors is Ginko Papers. They are a mail order company based out of Los Angeles. They have new tape!! I am salivating over the new designs. Check 'em out here. I placed my order last night. I can't wait!

I've been asking this for years...how much food is thrown away. Daily. In every city across America...by every grocery store. How there really is no food shortage. There's plenty of food to go around. It's the way that things are set up...
