Dear Friends,

I'm here to share some November fruits from the cornucopia in my corner. Currently we're in the midst of recording my next studio album. It's going well! My drive home each evening is accompanied by sunsets like the one pictured above. It's a joy to be working with a crew of trusted and talented friends again. I feel quite taken care of as we're taking care of the music.

There's an exciting new item in my online store--Oh Vanille tees & tanks that I'm screen-printing by hand. I'm taking orders through November 30th and shirts will ship out in the first week of December. I'm printing about 100 shirts in sizes Small-XXL; measurements in inches are given in the size menu. About half of the shirts have sold since being added to my site a few nights ago, so I expect they'll run out quickly! The shirts are made from 100% organic cotton, grown-and-sewn in the U.S. Order here.

(Oh Vanille / ova nil turns twenty in 2023. Important Records recently reached out to begin planning for a vinyl reissue.)


Recently I've gotten back into drawing just for pleasure. It'd been a few years and I'm finding it to be a good unwinding for the mind. The result is that I have a few collages to send out into the world! If you'd like to purchase a piece of original art from me, here are three for your consideration:

Owl Galette: 7.25" x 9", ball-point pen & watercolor on acid-free card stock

Situationships, 7.25" x 9", ball-point pen & old-stock paper on acid-free card stock

Help With What You Have, 8.5" x 10.25", ink pen on acid-free card stock & brown paper bag

Lastly, I'll mention that I'm hosting an Online Concert on Sunday, December 4th from 4-5pm ET. The concert is open to the public and free for my Patreon supporters. You can join my Patreon page at any time to read writings and listen to dozens of recordings that I haven't shared anywhere else. 

I thank you for reading my little update.

Wishing everyone a peaceful end-of-year time and holidays with loved ones.

Diane
