hi friends, i am moving my blog (heart-sleevestudio.blogspot.com) and my website (heart-sleevestudio.com) to a new combined home, madebyalissandra.com! the dailies will continue to be updated there each week, and will be home to much more regularly updated galleries with illustration, hand-lettering, and sketchbook work. click here to visit me and my work in its new home: madebyalissandra.com

please update your links and rss feeds so you don't miss out on any of the fun!

heart-sleeve studio was good to me, but hopefully this new place can become just as home-y and familiar soon enough!

I'M ON FULL-SPEED UNTIL THANKSGIVING PLEASE FORGIVE MY BREVITY AND LACK OF ADORABLE CHIT-CHAT

HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYBODY

dailies 10/30-11/5.

the dailies this week come from my first week as not-an-art-teacher. for two weeks at school i have been transformed into a history/social studies teacher for "facing history and ourselves" a immersive seminar for eighth graders about all the terrible atrocities man has committed against man throughout time. CHEERY, RIGHT? but i don't mind it as much as i might have imagined, and i have a great group of students, so that's a real plus.

(sunday, october 30th)

 (monday, october 31st)

 (tuesday, november 1st)

 (wednesday, november 2nd)

 (thursday, november 3rd)

 (friday, november 4th)

(saturday, november 5th)

a plus of this feel-good seminar program is that i have very little prep to do for school, since much of the curriculum is designed in advance (also we had a professional development day on friday which meant i did most of the work at schoooooooool!) as a result, i did a TON of work for artmarket this weekend! i am really excited to be able to launch some new things this year, so stay tuned for some sneak peeks! don't forget artmarket is dec 8th-11th @ MICA.

some speedy end-of-the-day dailies as i jet off to prepare for an observed lesson first thing tomorrow morning! this was a off-beat week, with jury duty and rosh hashana (aka no school) sandwiched among teaching days.

(sunday, september 25th)

(monday, september 26th)

 (tuesday, september 27th)

 (wednesday, september 28th)

 (thursday, september 29th)

 (friday, september 30th)

(saturday, october 1st)

things i learned at jury duty: 

1) it costs $11 a day to park in baltimore city

2) dreamboats adam scott and michael vartan were both in monster-in-law, quite possibly the worst movie ever made (what a waste)

3) no one ever mispronounces your name when it's "juror 453"

have a great week, everybody!
