I visited Haiti a couple of times years ago and I was shocked to see all of the wild dogs running around hurt and hungry. We came across one dog that was hit by a car and was suffering so much. It broke my heart. Of course, we were there to focus on and help people, so I got a side eye when I voiced my concern for the animals. I can't help it though. Dogs touch my heart and call out to my soul. Just wanted to say thanks and I'm looking forward to lots of beautiful dresses and saved dogs in 2013:)kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18382459464843256391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363713571304852687.post-31653718692310588302012-10-16T16:13:04.871-07:002012-10-16T16:13:04.871-07:00I am like FREAKY OCD about it.

I know all about her project (I live in Raleigh, NC., but religiously read blogs like PoppyTalk and Design Sponge where her work has been featured). People who think the card is cool are likely already familiar with the fact that she doesn't draw things perfectly accurately. She has drawn all kinds of logos on items. Like Andy Warhol doing the Campbell's soup cans in purples and greens and oranges, accuracy is not the point, concept and art are. She is a hip artist with a cool idea that has been celebrated in the art, design, and handmade supporting communities which, I would think, lends additional cred to your work and coolness. I didn't know about you until now. So, although a limited sample, it is antidotal evidence of it being positive exposure. Good luck!KBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12430608135057557158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363713571304852687.post-69998741925951010372011-02-01T22:46:15.435-08:002011-02-01T22:46:15.435-08:00We donated them all to the Portland Rescue Mission...We donated them all to the Portland Rescue Mission.
