Speaking of holiday shopping, a sincere thank you for those of you choosing to buy from artists and independent businesses like mine this holiday! Your purchases are especially meaningful right now, as we’re handling vet bills for my loving cat and studio mascot Peechee who recently experienced heart failure. (He is sitting next to me snuggling as I write this!)

Without further ado, photos below. And one of Peechee, too. Thank you! Stay tuned for holiday order cut-off days which I’ll post as soon as I can take a look at a calendar and figure out what day it is. For those outside the US, as always, order sooner rather than later to allow enough time for your package to climb its way across the world. I’ll post specific dates shortly! Thanks again.

I’ll have original paintings, t-shirts, notepads, and lots more at Grumpy Bert’s pop-up shop at the DeKalb Market in Brooklyn, NY — Call 347.855.4849 for hours & info — show runs through December 24th.

Then, November 13th, come see me here in my hometown of San Diego, CA at the Local Color Craft Fair — 11am-3pm at Glashaus.

I also have original paintings in a few upcoming shows:

Below, see a few shots of my recent work. More updates soon, including solo shows in Portland OR and Los Angeles for 2012! Stay tuned – and, as always, thanks for keeping in touch with me and my work.
You can also find me online at: Facebook, Twitter @boygirlparty and Etsy

Meanwhile, 2012 Clockwork Agendas sold out on the day of their release! Yes, TOTALLY SOLD OUT. Out of print! Gone! So, get one wherever you can find one!

In other news, my portfolio has been freshly updated, the shop is stocked with new holiday greeting cards and magnet sets including this, this, this, this, this, and this! Snowy bike rides and squirrels on skis, woo!

Other fun stuff:

P.S. At the very bottom of the shop page, you’ll see a bunch of new original paintings available as well!

They’re all available in my shop at http://shop.boygirlparty.com, and below you can see a few glimpses of all the newness (or read more about it here on my personal blog)

I’ve added several paintings to the Boygirlparty shop as well – in addition to new t-shirts, greeting cards, magnets, and more!

Soon, soon… My Spring 2011 collection of stationery from Chronicle Books is nearing release, and my excitement is off the charts! Preview/preorder the collection here: http://tinyurl.com/susie-at-chroniclebooks
And stay tuned for further updates about the Travel Journal, Pocket Agenda, Eco Journal and Birds of a Feather notecards that are soon to be released!

Lastly, I’ve abandoned the boygirlparty podcast in favor of an easy-to-use, free & fun mix sharing website called 8tracks, so if you’d like to continue listening to the music I prefer when painting, you may join me at:

Thanks for reading!

Wishing you all the best in 2011!
