The Glen Lake Art Fair

Murami had a booth at the 2008 Glen Lake Art Fair in Glen Arbor, Michigan. It was a great time and I will be hitting the workshop hard after I finish training for a century (yes, that's right, 100 miles on a bike) for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Donate here!

And here are some photos from the show:

Merry Elfmas!

Here's a little something for you folks who were wondering how I get all that Murami production done! Enjoy, and happy holidays!

The Murami Elves!

Updated web site!

I've been holed up in my workshop for countless hours over the past few weeks. The result? EIGHT new frame styles (with more on the way), and a beautiful new web site design! (And I'm totally caught up on Preston & Steve and NPR podcasts!)

I must admit that I am not responsible for updating the web site. My wonderful webmistress and designer Tian Qiu Xia, all the way in Kunming, China, has been the source of the beautiful new additions and updates to the site. I send an email with requests, and while I sleep, magical things happen to the web site. I can't thank you enough, Tian!

I have, however, dabbled a bit in Dreamweaver and FTP site maintenance because of Murami, so I'm grateful for this learning experience and so excited to show you the finished product.

Go, shop, and enjoy!

Holiday Production

I spent an entire day in the shop yesterday working on frames. I cast a new set of knobs - the wine labels - that seemed to be a big hit. I'm going to have fun over the next few weeks. I've had several people come to me about holiday orders. I would say thank you for being patient with my MIA status from blogging, but I don't think anyone noticed. ;)

Stay tuned! I'm going to take photos of the new frames and post them soon.

Murami frames on eBay!

Welcome to a new wave of Murami action! I'm going to open an eBay store to sell Murami frames. Please see the first listing here!

Show photos!

Here are a couple photos from a show I did on Sunday in Reading, PA. The weather was perfect and I ran out of business cards! Thanks to everyone who came by.

Moving (on up)

Here's just a little update: Murami's "headquarters" will be moving shortly to the Philadelphia area, and the site will soon have a working online store!
