President's Day 2014

To commemorate today, I thought it would be fun to share something 'presidential' that I made a few years back, in the first grade.  Miraculously, this clay George Washington face has survived all these years later and now hangs in my studio.  This is for you old friend, Happy Birthday George!

Mudpuppy Magnetic Trains

This one's for aspiring engineers and railroad enthusiasts young and old. Thank you Cynthia at Galison-Mudpuppy for another fun opportunity - working on this playset was like being a kid again. Check them out here.

Olympic Gold

I just learned, this beautifully produced 30 second spot will air tonight,  in select markets,  during the Sochi Games Opening Ceremony.  This one is a source of happiness and pride, a big win for the host city Cleveland and a positive, lasting recognition of equality - so needed today.  Equality is Golden.
