my feet on the dash

These doilies took my breath away

(the Herpes virus)

Laura Splan amazes me. I mean, I'm at once speechless when I look at her work and supremely jealous that I never thought of this (as usual) being the crafty science illustrator that I am! She's approached 'anatomical art' in a way I've never seen before and it's subtlety just floors me. My favourite sort of blend: deadly and gorgeous. Mega-kudos to you, Laura. Seriously.

Beyond Labcoats and Goggles... Science Shopping

 

I've created another new off-shoot from this here blog: http://redmeg8.typepad.com/meganderings/beyond-labcoats-and-goggles-science-wearables.html

I'm collecting awesome science-related goods from around the web... all for you and those geeky types you need to buy things for. :)

It's in its infancy, so, please check back often for more stuff (there's a permanent link under 'pages' there in the left column) - it might get its own site some day, even. Dream big!

Enjoy!

Off go some MORSEL paintings! Sniff sniff.

The whole package, originally uploaded by redmeg8.

Off go the first batch of paintings to their new owners. Thank you everyone for your support of my little project!

(the envelopes and cards are from paper-source & I used a Speedball kit to make the stamp.)

Little addendum about my sister's wristlet bags for sale...

They're now on ebay!
http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZe_squareddesigns

Also, I neglected to mention that the E-SQUARED part of the business name stands not only for my sister, Erin, but also her very good friend, Erin W. ;p  Sorry for the oversight, Erin (who's not my sister)!

------------------------------------------------

And a note to recommend the new Fleet Foxes album. It is the PERFECT summer record. And, if you like it, I also recommend My Morning Jacket's "Z" and Midlake's "Tales of Van Occupanther". Enjoy!

My sister's wares on etsy!

My sister's wares!, originally uploaded by redmeg8.

Hooray! Both of my sisters are on esty.com now, offering awesome handmade items. Erin's store (shown above) has hand-sewn bags, wristlets, and cool little bottle cap buttons.

See http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5246475 for my other sister's shop! Jewelry, knitted items, and beads galore! :)

Readymade is online!

WOW! This rocks! I don't know if it'll be free always, but, if you've ever wanted to check the magazine out, but:

a) didn't feel like reading it at your local store because you have little $$, or,
b) never seem to remember to go pick up issues (or are just generally lazy), or,
c) always wanted to check it out, but you simply could never remember at a good time,

...well, then this is for you!
