3/5 Nesbit in Monterey.

Sydney and I arrived in Monterey last Thursday around 9pm, greeted Jamie, drank wine, spoke of men and went to sleep. Friday morning we went to the aquarium while Jamie worked and then got together for lunch, conversation and a road trip through Carmel. We had drinks with...



Kris! We met up again for coffee at ACME that next morning but in between, we headed to...



fine art base, a new, non-profit, gallery/studio space in Sand City in which Jamie is currently exhibiting Fear Out Front, a multi-media and interdisciplinary exploration of personal fears and how they are made manifest in communal interaction.








We then headed over to the National Steinbeck Center in who's next exhibition, From the Stone and Anvil:Arthurian Legend Exposed and Abstracted, Jamie is showing some new work which takes a bit after abstract painting...




We talked all night and needed more time, decidedly so.


Jamie is moving off to UConn in less than a few weeks, Sydney begins with a new design program soon, I am moving back to Madrid on August 17th, Libby is looking for a new place to live and Lauren has accepted a new store-design position at Athropologie... where shall we meet next?

Love, Elly

first morning news.

Merce Cunningham has passed away.

More Nesbit updates to come along shortly...I need to get out of bed and eat breakfast first.

life



Hi team. The show went well, it's over and I am happy. I will be spending the next few weeks doing absolutely no art... finally. I had never felt like not making something until I found myself in the middle of two hell months jam packed with over commitments. As it turns out, it is possible to have too many goals. It does feel good to find your limit, be pushed to it, then allow yourself the space to relax. I miss you all and cannot wait to see the NESBITERS in Monterey.
