My friend, Melissa Zexter, got a nice surprise last night when
she stumbled upon this terrific piece in BUST Magazine about her work.

You can also read my in depth interview
with Melissa from a few years ago Here :)

In other good, over the top, crazy good news -
My friend, Graham Willoughby learned that the highly
acclaimed documentary he shot,
20 Feet from Stardom, has been nominated for an Oscar!
((ps It also won Critics' Choice Award for Best Documentary last night))
:::
In more great, awesome, I'm jealous kind of news,
my friend, Kristine Lombardi recently signed a 2 book deal with Abrams
for her 1st picture book!
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that
seeing Oliver Jeffers speak at The Met Museum this summer
brought us good luck! Well, to one of us ;)

and finally in minor news to most, but uplifting lovely news to me, one of
my favorite blogs, Animalarium shared my little Mouse on her Facebook page.
Animalarium is a blog by Laura Ottina.
It's packed with wonderful animal-centric artwork, old & new!
I'm a big fan of many of the artists and work she shares on it.

Visit her Facebook page if you'd like to 'like' Mouse
and see her other picks for the week.
Ok, I couldn't resist...
Above, Graham posing with "Summer Nervous Bear"
almost *20 years ago*
He paid more than what I asked for it,
1st time that ever happened to me and most likely, the last.
He also gave me a list of art directors to contact so I could find
work in the film business. A blessing and a curse, I suppose ;D
Anyway,
A Big Congrats to my Talented Hard Working Friends!!!

Also, if you have young kids, Babble rounded up their list of the

and the Civil Rights Movement.
Enjoy your 3 day weekend!
