I just got hold of a copy of issue 2 of
Extra Curricular magazine. It's got a stylish layout, interesting interviews and nice rounded corners. But I think the thing I like most about this magazine is the idea behind it. It's all about people who do creative things in their spare time, balancing their creative endeavours with the demands of jobs, families, that kind of thing. And I think it's nice to have that acknowledged & validated, that creative work does often have to fit around other parts of your life, but that there are lots of people doing amazing things when they've come home from the office, finished that essay, done the grocery shopping, etc. I recommend it.
The latest issue of Extra Curricular magazine is out and I'm privileged to be in it! This issue is printmaking themed and there's an interview with me about Millicent Crow and an article I wrote about gocco printing. As well as lots of other awesome things AND a bonus holiday book full of ideas for things to make over the summer.
And if you come through my front door today...
...you'll find that the floor looks like this! I've been busy printing up huias for Craft Country Wairarapa. Now to iron them, and zigzag them, and print some more...
