The Master Plan Has Begun

I know, I know, I've been far too quiet here...but I have a really good excuse. HONEST!

In a nutshell, I have quit my corporate design job, and I am moving to Seattle. In two weeks, I will begin the journey from Rhode Island to Washington state, via a cross-country tour with stops in Spencer, MA, Buffalo, NY, Youngstown, OH, Kalamazoo, MI, Chicago, IL, Minneapolis, MN, Billings, MT, Missoula, MT, and Spokane, WA.  Complete info is here: http://darklydramatic.com/oceantosea.html

I will be teaching regular classes in Seattle, once I get settled, at Tin Can Studio, and already have a list of upcoming performances in the Northwest/West Coast where you can catch me, including a tour with The Ghosts Project from Seattle to San Diego at the end of August: http://www.darklydramatic.com/tgp/

Instead of putting my creative energy into corporate clients, I'm going to focus on my own jewelry line and get back to making actual artwork, on top of teaching/performing dance - so more on that as I get settled.

And if that's not enough for you...here's a close-up video of my performance at Tribal Fest 12 with Nathaniel Johnstone, courtesy of Beebe Lee (who is made of awesome):
