Here are some recent news from Josie :
"The pumpkins have been carved, the seeds roasted, we are deep into November
and starting to think about sweet potatoes and cranberries. A recent
meander through the conceptually and materially impeccable sculptures of Martin
Puryear at SFMOMA was as peaceful and awe striking as my wander on the beach a
couple of days later. Thousands of sand dollars sat whole at the tides edge,
their five-fold etched petaloids staring up from the sand. Form, in both
instances, at a wondrous apex. A few events are coming up to celebrate
the books, and to provide a sneak preview of the next project: a book of beach
treasure. I look forward to seeing many of you. Saturday,
December 6 10am - 6pm: Kitchen Table Studio's Holiday
Fair St.Teresa's, 19th & Connecticut, Potrero Hill,
SF. A fun, seasonal and neighborly group of artists selling their wares
and sharing sumptuous snacks. I will be selling all four books and will
have prints for sale. Please stop by. Heart Stones makes a great stocking
stuffer and bring one of the other books to every holiday party!
Wednesday, December 10, 12:30 pm: California Academy of
Sciences Talk and book signing with Sandy Carlson and scientists from the
museum. Come celebrate the Seashells collaboration with the Academy at the new
location in Golden Gate Park. Forthcoming information will be up on their
site. Visuals Unlimited, a stock
photo agency specializing in science, has many of the images from my books.
Please let any textbook editors or magazine photo directors know. Their new
website will be up in December."
