Arborist to Artist

6, Feb 2010

A story about an artist, told by a writer and a photographer, all boyhood friends of mine whom I am so happy to see are using their talents to bring beautiful things into the world. Through Kevin Bouldin’s vivid words and Daniel Collin’s communicative images, I was able to catch up with an old friend [...]

Peppermint Candy and Multiple/Dialogue ∞ at Seoul MOCA

18, Jan 2010

Last weekend we got a nice group of art-loving friends together and headed down to Seoul’s Museum of Contemporary Art, which is located in the Seoul Grand Park complex. Another friend had been raving about the Peppermint Candy exhibit she had seen there, and we wanted to be sure to see it before it closes [...]

Good Question…

9, Nov 2009

Last week, Amy Robbins-Wilson posted her raving review of Laughing Tree Lullabies, Vol. 1 on her Lullaby Link blog. As we were corresponding about our record, she interviewed me about who we are as Laughing Tree, what we’re up to, our lullaby record and our partnership with Sweet Sleep.She posted our interview today. I hope [...]

Our Window

7, Oct 2009

An elegant, simple idea: Our friend Youngdoo from Seoul has recently begun posting weekly photo diptychs with her friend who goes by fiftyfootshadows. Their concept is simple. Weekly, they each choose a photo, place them side-by-side and let the interesting juxtapositions and serendipities arise. I love the collaborative idea, and I love the beautiful diptychs. [...]

A painter, sculptor, photographer, poet…

2, Oct 2009

We visited the new modern wing of The Art Institute of Chicago today. It’s an excellent addition to an already astounding collection of fine art. Adam and I were particularly taken with the Cy Twombly exhibit. Twombly was born in 1928, and this exhibit, called The Natural World, includes work from 2000-2007. It’s beautifully diverse [...]

Ira Glass on the dangers of good taste

30, Sep 2009

We’re always interested in better understanding the creative process and in ways to move beyond the inevitable roadblocks that come one’s way when trying to make something beautiful and good. It’s not an easy road at times (I had a flat tire for several years, myself), so that’s why words of encouragement from those who’ve [...]

Focus to infinity

28, Sep 2009

We just got a message from our friend Amber Hill who we met in Seoul. She left Seoul a little before us, but she ‘s back in Asia now, she’s taking gorgeous photos, and she’s posting them on her new photo blog. I love how Amber sees things. I think her eye is distinctly feminine. [...]

What is Laughing Tree, anyway?

22, Sep 2009

We had lunch today with Sam Davidson of Cool People Care (yeah, I know we’ve mentioned him a lot lately… he’s cool.). He helped us wrestle with the questions, “What exactly is Laughing Tree, anyway? What are we trying to do?” I thought you might have the same question, so let me share some things [...]

New Twist

20, Sep 2009

Today we visited several cool galleries in downtown Nashville and were heartened by the burgeoning local art scene! There’s some great stuff happening. Especially cool are the galleries in the Nashville Arcade off of 5th Avenue. We visited our friend Beth Gilmore who curates Twist Art Gallery on the second level of the Arcade. It’s [...]

New photos by Adam

8, Sep 2009

Adam was on a shooting spree the last few months as we traveled Europe, and now that we have returned to the states, he’s editing and starting to process and combine them through some photo transfer techniques. We’ll share more about that soon, but here’s a sneak peak to some of Adam’s newest work: We’ll [...]
