Hello, friends! I’m very excited to have recently broken the 1,000-followers mark on Twitter! Woo Hoo!! To celebrate this momentous occasion, I’m going to be giving away a fab gift for someone! Just leave a comment below, and I’ll have a random-number-generator pick the winner this Thursday, May 6th, afternoon-ish. The lucky duck will receive a 4×4 block print from Stray Dog Arts! Choose your favorite from the Eskimo Kisses or Art For Dogs Collections. {Just in time for Mother’s Day!}

We’re very excited about Stray Dog Arts over here, for a few reasons… 1) because, well, Jessie rocks. 2) Thursday, May 6th, is the opening reception for Stray Dog Arts’ “Dogs of Edina” gallery show! If you’re free from 5-7pm on Thursday, you HAVE to come. It’s in a huge gallery space at the Galleria in Edina, it’s catered, there’s live music, and you’ll get a chance to hobnob with the artist herself. I’ll be there photographing the event, so say hi to me too!

And 3) because Jessie is opening up the gallery space for events throughout the month of May! One I’m particularly excited about is Mon Ami, on Friday, May 14th. You can read about that event here, BUT I’ll have a whole big thing about it on my blog soon, too, so for now, just concentrate on the 6th  :)

So! Leave a comment, maybe win a 4×4 block print from Stray Dog Arts. Easy Peasy!
