Orders for New Geisha Tee Start NOW!
As of a few minutes ago orders for my new limited edition tshirt have begun! This is a limited run, and will only be available for purchase until June 15th. That’s less than TWO WEEKS. Then they’re gone forever.
Some of the proceeds go to StartingArtists.org, a local charity that provide free after school art classes and art business training to inspire youth to create arts-based enterprises. Which is awesome. And some proceeds go to me.
Click THIS LINK or click the image above. Support the arts, support children in the arts, support the artist. And thanks in advance!

Good Damn News
I haven’t written a post in freaking FOREVER. Sorry about that. So now I actually have something of value to say. Or maybe a couple somethings.
For the first time ever I am self-employed. I no longer work for someone else. This is officially my third day owning and running my very own web design company. At the moment it’s called “Caffeine” and the url is caffeinewebdesign.net. I’m looking into a couple other domains as well, and getting the site done and up as fast as possible.
Additionally, my art show that most/all of you already know about is August 1st. I’m supposed to have EVERYTHING ready today. Riiiiiight. I’m close, though. I have a few more to knock out. I guess I should post some here, since It’s been a while and I’ve done lots of new work recently. I’ll put one at the bottom of this post, k?
Third piece of excitement. Yes, it comes in PIECES. I went to Vloggercon in SF. That link shows all the amazingness that was that conference. I met such amazing people and learned a TON. And of course I came back with the best tshirts EVER, like a G4 show shirt for a brand new show called “Torrent”. I like that because like NOONE has a torrent shirt so my cool points are higher than EVER when I wear it. This weekend I’m going BACK to SF for Barcamp. So I expect to learn even more about the interweb and hang out with lots of awesome people, and most likely run into some people I already know from the LAST conference. Ok more soon… XO erica
