Walking along the Millenium trail that follows the Yukon River leads you to the Whitehore Rapids Fishway. The fishway is an elaborate Salmon ladder to help the Salmon detour the hydro dam. While visiting the fishway there is a lovely art installation along the path to the outside observation decks called One Fish, Two Fish.

I am feeling the need to make soimething and so I have started a new series of designs based on shedding. The second drawing is inspired by our favourite summer insect. The buzzing, humming cicada.
Cicada's live in a larcal state for seven years. They emerge from the graound shed their larval skins to become the lovely summer cicada.

It was a great day yesterday walking down Queen Street between McCaul and John streets, photographing all the corporate and vernacular ‘design’ along the way.

Iterative Practice, Iterative Pedagogy: Integrating Writing and Studio Education to Foster Reflective Teaching and Transformative Learning in the First-Year Graphic Design Classroom
Over last semester Nancy Snow, Emilie Brancato and myself have been collecting work from our first year core course, Communication Design 2 for a pilot study at OCAD University that looks at writing as part of the iterative process in the studio classroom. We have been analyzing the data this past month and have made some very exciting discoveries.

Since completing my Masters in Design (MDes) I have been working hard to align all of my work under one name. Before my masters, I was separating my design work (SaskiaDesign.com) from my hand work (BaitedHookHandmade.com). I saw one as my vocation and the other as my hobby, my passion. This separation was due to my perceived understanding that one (hand work) was less than the other (vocation). Why? From where does this understanding stem?
