The Intersection of Art, Design & Life

Scarves unraveled and good foundations

November 5, 2012 by rhennen

Things don’t have to be perfect the first time out and I fight that – I want it to just happen and be right out of the gate. Sometimes I don’t want to keep going because it’s not right the first time but that really never accomplishes anything, does it? You just end up with a bunch of half-assed stuff lying around in your brain and your life, taking up space and niggling at you.

New for Fall!

October 20, 2012 by rhennen

There was nothing between winter and summer to spruce up our bland hallway door – our building is fairly new but the hallways look like hotels or dorm rooms with no carpets. Light green doors, door number, bell, bland hallways. I put a mat in front of the door but sometimes you just need a little bit more. It’s much nicer to come home to a little personalization. The other

Global Sketchbook Project Day

June 3, 2012 by rhennen

Today was the Sketchbook Project meet-up day. I almost didn’t go – it was such a perfect Sunday to not do anything. Just sunny enough, just breezy enough. Did I really want to go hang out with people I didn’t know, who might not even show? But I did go and I’m glad I went!

Trust Design

May 25, 2012 by rhennen

Trust does begin with the client. The first principle, keep your promises, is by far the most important. If the client can’t trust your word, they probably won’t trust your design either.

If love were what the rose is…

April 1, 2012 by rhennen

I have always liked this poem. I first read it years ago in a book of love poems from Victoria’s Secret (right? I don’t think they’d ever do this now). It was a slim book in a case with a blue ribbon to mark your page. And I think it smelled slightly of cedar. A Match by Algernon Charles Swinburne If love were what the rose is,

Seeing Visions

March 18, 2012 by rhennen

I am part of this really cool 8 week coaching intensive program, the Live Your Dream Challenge with Jenny Fenig, success coach to savvy women-on-a-mission, and our first assignment was to create vision boards – a way of seeing what your dream looks like to better help you achieve that dream. You can use magazine images, typography, anything you want really, that will convey what you’re wanting to happen. It’s fun making time to just sit and pull out pictures that you really like. Focus on yourself!

Thai Vegetable Noodle Soup

February 8, 2012 by rhennen

Last night, I felt like cooking something different and decided this broth had spent enough time hanging out. (I’ve been trying to get back to creating in general after a few very long, busy months!) It was so delicious.

I was waiting on paint to dry the other day... And I was waiting on paint to dry the other day... And decided it was a good time to finally create blackout poetry. It went well.
