Greetings!
Summer weather is finally here and we have a new Yoshiko Yamamoto print to celebrate! For your July framing coupon, be sure to scroll to the end of this newsletter. | Yoshiko Yamamoto: The Tortise and The Hare |
Yoshiko's new block print for Summer, 2011 illustrates the proverbial Tortoise and Hare fable. In it we see the lumbering but persistent Tortoise on a long winding path through grassy hills, poppies and bachelor's buttons, cheered on by a ladybug and a purple butterfly. Meanwhile the Hare lazily sleeps in the shade of a live oak in the background. Find pricing & details here... |

Sheela is a recent honors graduate from UC Santa Cruz with a BA in History of Art and Visual Culture. She plans future study in Conservation Science. Sheela previously worked at a large crafts store, and is quickly learning our framing procedures. Morgan is a graduate of Loyola Marymont University with a degree in Studio Arts and Asian Studies. She recently moved to the Bay Area from Santa Monica where she was a manager, designer, and buyer at Jewel Box Frames. We are lucky to have found such talent to replace two of our staff. Elizabeth left last month for Colorado,and Micah has accepted a position as a framing manager in Oakland. Our assistant manager, Lisa, begins graduate school at the University of Oregon in late August. She will be away for the month of July and back in August for a few weeks. Next month we will tell you more about Lisa's future plans.
