What a weekend we had over at the L.A. Art Book Fair at MoCA Geffen Contemporary in Little Tokyo! Leigh and I were in charge of the BOOK STAND table all weekend long and it was so much fun! The theme that Claire so cleverly created for BOOK STAND was one color : pink. We got to:

• meet the loveliest bunch of people
• part stacks of books aside to set up a temporary flower shop + sell monochromatic pink flowers (!)
• share all of our favorite artists / photographs / books / journals that fell under the pink umbrella
• drink strawberry-silver-milk from Moon Juice
• stare at Mark Borthwick's 'all the best bird`s feel her' poster over at Jane & Jeremy stand
• spotting Yolandi Visser of Die Antwoord  nearby getting a book signed
• dress in shades of blush and pink all in the name of pink
• witness a very special moon fish collection
• got to see/touch base with so many friends that we hadn't seen in a long while
• got to enjoy (finally) some rain as we were tearing down Sunday night

Overall it was a success! More than anything I enjoyed getting to spend time with Leigh Patterson, who I don't often get to see because she lives in Austin, Texas. Important to mention too: it was so nice meeting all of you who so kindly stopped by to introduce yourselves, to say hello, or simply talk flowers with me. Gosh I was so stoked! Still am, actually...
