here’s the sign I made for our tent – drying in the sun, this morning.
Theo requested a rough and raw one, just the like the one, in spirit !! that I spray painted on the wall . . for his and Kate’s pop-up show: ‘UNDER THE VOLCANO: SIMON CERIGO, DAN ASHER, NANCY SMITH’ / summer 2015.
kind of raw and wild, and in indie distress, lol !!
yes, those are two very real, authentic vintage American folk art . . ‘tire’ planters, that I found dumped on the street a few years back & have cherished ever since, RICHARD PRINCE, roll over . . with envy !!

NANCY SMITH . . detail of the reverse side of my current quilt project.
it’s ‘Dedicated to EMILY DICKINSON’, because y’all know I’ve been obsessed with her – all winter !!
therefore. I’ve tried to keep it very condensed & minimal in decoration, and execution, but still: packing . . . a quiet PUNCH !!
very spiritual. very contemplative.
I’ll “reveal” the front tomorrow, . . or better yet, come see it at the Fair, and I’ll explain all the old school traditional patterns, and resources . . to you in person !!
