But it's totally interesting. Maybe what I'm doing is always design and I'm weirded out that it always gets more complicated and detailed than the minimalist thing I started out wanting to achieve. My brain wants a real "less is more" look, but my hands keep making Rube Goldbergs. . . <br />Amy E Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05019867486008676168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889651960943011136.post-58349393301700218722014-06-01T07:57:48.225-05:002014-06-01T07:57:48.225-05:00Is it possible you're confusing Art with Desig...Is it possible you're confusing Art with Design? Art, whose messy, process oriented creation is often considered a form of self-expression vs. Design, calculated creation with an end goal (in form and or function) in mind? Maybe you just have to slog through some of the surprises as an act towards refining the aesthetics of your work? Could be a powerful process!halemonsternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889651960943011136.post-40046276705339471362014-04-18T10:57:51.026-05:002014-04-18T10:57:51.026-05:00Awwww. they are all so cool. those little greens t...Awwww. they are all so cool. those little greens trying to fight THE winter!Allegrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455268198155796644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889651960943011136.post-28986488238784417202014-01-12T10:08:33.915-06:002014-01-12T10:08:33.915-06:00Aw, Alex.

I remember that little elephant! :) And I recently got from Biggy's house all of the letters you wrote to me over the years. They fill a huge binder, and I'm pretty sure there are more of them in a box in my office. I've been meaning to send you little snippets from them, but haven't managed to do it yet. I miss those days!

Wabash is quite short, before it turns into Medical Pkwy and I don't know of a Harrison St. in Austin. I'd like to see it, if at all possible.
