"Jen Lee is a pioneer. She answers a call to search more deeply, to resolve questions with truth and integrity. And--lucky for us all--she shares what she learns from her journey through teaching and storytelling so that we can gain more clarity around what is calling us and how to explore that unknown terrain with confidence and courage."

--Elizabeth Duvivier, founder of Squam Art Workshops

"Here's the magic about Jen Lee: No matter how deeply I think I've gone into a topic, Jen can always take me deeper. Just when I think I have something figured out, she asks a question or offers a thought that gives me a new perspective and shows me what I was missing. I live a richer creative life because of her wisdom."  --Jenna McGuiggan, The Word Cellar

In Good Company

This week I'm playing with the new Diana F+ lens adaptor for Canon SLRs (there's one for Nikon, too).  I'm hoping to have a full-blown review up soon.  In the meantime, here a few of my pictures from this experiment.

I'm happy to announce that Take Me with You: A Journal for the Journey will now be available for sale at Scaredy Kat, one of my favorite gift boutiques in Brooklyn.  They recently moved to a larger space, but they're still on Fifth Avenue in Park Slope.

Canon Rebel xsi with (I think) the Diana F+ Super Wide LensSince I was just trying to casually snap a few pics yesterday, and I'm still experimenting with this camera and lens set-up, it's hard to feel like these photos do the place justice.  But it's bright and roomy, and it's the first place I go when I'm looking for that just right thing for myself or someone I love.

Their selection is edited so well that you don't have to sort through, dig under or look past anything that isn't exquisite and original.  I'm so pleased to have my journal featured as part of their collection.

The best part of all is that Scaredy Kat also sells Mati Rose's magnets (this photo is pretty dreamy, but perhaps you can make them out there on the second shelf).

How wonderful! Congrats!

That shop is so colorful, and proper placement and shelfing efficiency are what can make or break a store like this. Seems like a perfect place for your journal and mati's magnets.

I am way behind on the timing but I just started your portfolio project on my personal blog. I am so excited. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me!

I didn't get any fab photos in our class:(

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jen, I am so happy for you that your journal is being sold in such a fun store. The only thing that bothers me is that I cannot make it out on the shelf! I trust it is there however. :) Thank you for sharing a link to Mati's work - it is beautiful and is inspiring me as I consider some art I am swirling around in my mind to create. Hip, hip, hooray! A cheer for you, Jen! xoxo
