Morning in Portland.

Sitting by the river with some Voodoo doughnuts.

On the road again.

Mt Shasta.

Blog updated!

The Vital blog was down yesterday and today, but it is back! Yay!

Everyday Joe’s.

A while back we did a craft show at Everyday Joe’s in Fort Collins. We chatted with the nice folks there. Later we made those nice folks some tshirts for their shop. And then they wrote some nice words about Vital Industries. And now, we pass those words on to you. Please take a read. And maybe have some coffee while you do.

I got this cute ceramic earrings from Sofia Marsri at the SF Renegade! Precious!

Anish Kapoor.

We saw this sculpture by Anish Kapoor, entitled ‘Hole’, at SFMOMA. It is amazing. The viewer standing before the bell is drawn in. I wanted to crawl inside and have the piece totally envelope me. On the outside the raw pigment catches the light and glows, but on the inside the depth seems bottomless. Images from Steven King novels float in my head. If you visit SFMOMA, make sure to take a couple minutes to enjoy this sculpture.
