Robin Pickens: Who stole my blog name???
http://robinpickensblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/who-stole-my-blog-name.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Who stole my blog name? Seems a little redundant, doesn't it? I couldn't register for robinpickens. Because it was already taken. Finally one day I thought I'd go to the address and see who had beat me to registering my name. And do you know what I found? So now I am all moved over to my shorter, less redundant blog address of robinpickens.blogspot.com. 160;From now on, I'll only be posting to that location. So come visit me there and sorry for the confusion! Follow me on Twitter.

Snowpeastudio: LOUIE AWARD #3!!!!
http://snowpeastudio.blogspot.com/2014/05/louie-award-3.html
Monday, May 19, 2014. Here I am at the LOUIE display, admiring the pumpkin card I did with Design Design. We won for Best Children's Card above $3.50. It's a 3D maze, with little balls that run around like an old-fashioned game. The LOUIE Awards are the Greeting Card Association's award to manufacturers of greeting cards. The awards are given out annually during the Stationery Show and SURTEX in May. Thousands of cards are entered from many manufacturers. It's a competitive world out there for an artist.

Snowpeastudio: In the Halloween Mood
http://snowpeastudio.blogspot.com/2012/10/in-halloween-mood.html
Sunday, October 7, 2012. In the Halloween Mood. Scenes from this weekend's flea-market outing. October puts me in that certain mood, and where better to find creepiness than in the dusty corners of out-of-the way antique shops and country flea markets? Classic creepy clown doll. Classic purple western spaceman baby with squirrel hat. Looking a little worse for the wear, Mr. Lincoln. You'd swoon too if you had pins in your bustle. Message to the villagers. Scary pair of pants. Not gory and violent?

Snowpeastudio: It's April, I must be getting ready for SURTEX
http://snowpeastudio.blogspot.com/2013/04/its-april-i-must-be-getting-ready-for.html
Tuesday, April 9, 2013. It's April, I must be getting ready for SURTEX. Well, since the UPS guy has delivered this banner, I guess SURTEX must be coming up soon. This will be my 6th year exhibiting at the Jacob Javitz center in NYC (Booth 559), and I think after all this time I've finally figured out everything I have to do. Banners hanging out in the hammock before getting rolled up and transported. Design the booth, prepare my helpers (thanks Arlen, Susanne, James, Morgan and Dawn! My booth, 2009 or 10?

Snowpeastudio: November 2012
http://snowpeastudio.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2012. I don't post about food too often, but I recently made a pie that I thought was beautifully designed. That is, nice to look at as well as to make, an elegance in its simple assembly. You don't need a pie pan and can bake it right on a cookie sheet, this Rustic Apple Tart. First you make a crust dough on a piece of parchment, and using the rolling pin, roll toasted nuts right into it. Fold the edges up and over, forming a small bowl for the filling, patching up any tears.
