King Tut

Discovered this golden nugget while researching the next collection:  The skin of the sun god Ra was thought to be made of gold.

What's the concept for the next collection? .... Egyptian CMKY. 

This golden mask lay over the head, chest and part of the shoulders of the mummy of Psusennes I, as a layer of protection. The royal headdress with ureaus cobra and the divine false beard he wears attested to his royal and godly status. The use of gold, considered the flesh of the gods, reaffirmed his divinity in the afterlife. (http://www.chron.com/entertainment/photogallery/dlb_King_Tut_is_coming_to_Houston.html#23491277)

Tumblr vs. Blogspot

March has been quite a busy month!  Between traveling for pop-up shops, designing the new scarf collection, prepping for taxes (something which I have been horribly procrastinating), filming LOOMLAB's new webisodes (yup), and the launch of the new iPad (not that I had anything to do with this),  I've also been toying with the idea to abandon blogspot and switch to tumblr.... Too quick to jump into a microblogging site?   We shall see... 

Over and out for now... about to prepare a fresh pot of coffee and head back to design mode.

Suprasensorial at MOCA

Visited Suprasensorial: Experiments in Light, Color, and Space at MOCA on Saturday.  FABULOUS.  I really enjoy art that plays with your senses, is interactive, and encourages experience and active participation.
