For the afternoon: a wee bit of graffiti Jack spotted in Jamaica Plain last night as we biked home. and she screamed life is beautiful you are the dust we are the wind
As the child of an art teacher, I never went without fresh crayons (always Crayola, never the cheap, waxy kind) – not even when I colored on the walls. I also have distinct memories of being threatened with not being allowed to visit the Crayola factory if I didn’t behave myself; it may be the very […]
It turns out, we’ve got a thing for puns. Shocking news, I know. Our latest punny piece is an ode to the iconic furniture forms by the infamous design power-couple Charles and Ray Eames.
