General Howe Storming the Streets
There is a really great Interview with General Howe about the work!! Please take a look HERE
My favorite Quote:
"The reaction I would really like from anyone that sees one of my installations is to have the urge to play."
I fully believe art should be fun, playful and meaningful and this interview/art encompasses that for me!

Purple Sequined Jump Suit
My mission for the week has been to convince Man Friend Mike that our wedding song should include a purple sequined jump suit and some 'hot' pants. Below is the video that has inspired me, I think this would be the perfect wedding song!!
New Favorite Artist!
Saw this artist at a street art show a couple months ago. Stuff is awesome, site is fun and the artist is a GIRL, whohooo. There are some exceptions but for the most part all the street artists I see are men. So, its great to see an awesome female!! (my feminist quota is filled for the week..hehehhee.)

Fonts Excite Me
Excerpt:
"Style equals accuracy. Put the word “change” in Comic Sans and the idea feels lightweight and silly. Place it in Times Roman and it feels self-important. In Gotham, it feels just right. Inspiring, not threatening. In the end, typography makes a real difference when it delivers words and ideas that are relevant to people. And for many, that seems to be the case here."

Making History
Whether or not your an Obama fan, watching this is watching history in the making. This is the kind of stuff that makes me excited that I'm 24 year's old!!
A Fairy-tale for the 21st Century!
Once upon a time
~~~~~~~~
in a land far away,
~~~~~~~~
a beautiful, independent,
self-assured princess
~~~~~~~~
happened upon a frog as she sat
contemplating ecological issues
on the shores of an unpolluted pond
in a verdant meadow near her castle.
~~~~~~~~
The frog hopped into the princess' lap
and said: ' Elegant Lady,
I was once a handsome prince,
until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.
~~~~~~~~
One kiss from you, however,
and I will turn back
into the dapper, young prince that I am
~~~~~~~~
and then, my sweet, we can marry
~~~~~~~~
and set up housekeeping in your castle

and set up housekeeping in your castle
~~~~~~~~
with my mother,
~~~~~~~~
where you can prepare my meals,
~~~~~~~~
clean my clothes, bear my children,
~~~~~~~~
and forever feel
grateful and happy doing so. '
~~~~~~~
That night,
~~~~~~~~
as the princess dined sumptuously
~~~~~~~~
on lightly sauteed frog legs
~~~~~~~~
seasoned in a white wine
~~~~~~~
and onion cream sauce,
~~~~~~~~
she chuckled and thought to herself:
~~~~~~~~
I don't fuckin think so.

Welcome
This is my new blog, it will be attached to my new site, not sure of the launch date yet, but I wanted to take a proactive role and start my blog. I have decided to make my domain name allaboutjessie.com, hence my blog. Unfortunately, the name I wanted was taken by some weird high school girl named what else but Jessie, so I had to settle for double jessie's. Which is fine because people like to say my name multiple times for some reason. My man friend Mike mentioned last night that my domain name was too ego centric but then i explained that it woudl only be ego centric if it were itsallaboutjessie.com. Whereas my name is a lot more inviting, so I think it's a keeper.
