We all go a little mad sometimes.....















I'm sitting here attempting to write but I'm so creeped out by Anthony Perkins staring at me like that...man, Hitchcock knew how to make 'em, skREE, skREE, skREE....damn I'm really getting freaked out now...but suck it up Sheppard cause this is a creepy, scary, edge of your seat, think I just peed myself Halloween-esk update.....So let's stand and face the hounds of hell, but you first...

How bout something not sooo scary to start off with....(thanks Josh)...






Now for something spooky....I've been in LaLaLand for a little over two months and besides totally digging into the taco trucks I've also found a place for my work!!! Gold Bug is a super kickass shop in Pasadena...Not only is the work at Gold Bug totally awesome but so are Shelley, Stacey and Theodora, the family that runs this super cool place...They are having a 6th annual anniversary party this Friday and you are invited....so stop on by, check out all the killer new work and see what this shop is all about, oh and say Hi!!
 Gold Bug
22 East Union Street
Pasadena, CA

6-10pm




 The kind of freaky thing, Theodora pointed out that Evan Chambers also has his (ahhhmazing) work at Gold Bug and he also happened to be featured with me in last years Aug/Sept issue of American Craft , I had no idea....FReakY.....






































For the past month I've been off the (social media) grid...and yes Schmidty I'm  back....what have I been doing...well, a bit of writing...I know, scary right....looks like I know a bit bout this jewelry thing and people wanna read what I have to say...gotta say that's pretty damn cool...So I'll keep ya posted when and where you can get your own copy which will have not only a "how to" by me but also a shot in a photo gallery spread, yes that means CSD makes two appearances in Art Jewelry Magazine!!! RAD!!!

And if you have not checked out this gem of a publication, crawl out from the rock you've been living under and check them out....

Riding outside San Fran in the Redwoods

 

Visiting friends in San Fran (not a finger!!!) For the India lovers out there she's loving LA and our new roommates but she is still a lil princess.

I'm gonna leave ya with one last video...trying to decide if I should be my fav Tank Girl (again) for Halloween or go as Techno Viking ...my bro thinks I look like Techno Viking because of how I style my hair, I thought it would be cause of my rad dance moves or my facial hair...TG or TV??? Hard choice right??? They are both sooo badass...okay I know, Tank Girl could totally take Techno Viking...done....

Til next time....have a safe and fun Halloween filled with a palithera of sugar highs, wax lips and shenanigans....
