Do you know how to properly hydrate? Yesterday morning I didn't eat like most mornings. I had coffee and got to the shop by 8 am to work on the outside of the house. At the shop I drank lots of coffee, tea and of course water. By Afternoon my friend went to get us pizza and prepare for a much needed afternoon break. By this time I had mowed, weed whacked, trimmed bushes, raked debree, dug up roots and moved rocks. I love to work outside and gardening and landscaping is so gratifying! I didn't feel bad at all and it was only 70 degrees outside... I even took a break to drink water inside several times. Then it hit me I went to go rake some more as my friend would be back soon with pizza. As I started to rake I felt a tightness in my hand and dropped the rake. My two middle fingers siezed up and some other force than my brain pressed my finger tips into the palm of my hand as if I was signing "I love you." A vibrating force and some pain shot through my arm and vibrated in me for a while. I felt dizzy and walked to the back steps just as my friend arrived. Perfect timing since my anxiety about what was wrong with me had skyrocketed. I explained what happened and sat down with my fingers still tightly clamped to my palm unable to move them at all. I put cold bottles on the back of my neck, I drank Powerade and sat in the shade sometimes lying down. After a bite of pizza I thought I was going to hurl up my entire stomach. So I sat back to calm my fears focusing on my breathing and telling that inside friend to calm down my core self and that everything was going to be OK. I called my sister who was home visiting and just happens to be a nurse. She said "drink water and eat fruit you're probably just dehydrated!" I thought what? Me? I've been drinking all day and how is it doing this to my body. My fingers on the right hand finally gave way to the power of my mind after about 15 minutes. Then I had short bursts of muscle spasms in other areas. It went to my other hand and "froze" my pointer finger, my toes and even my leg but I noticed it was always for a shorter amount of time than before. Everything was going back to normal, it was going to get better... (at Tallmadge, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzElWuappp-/?igshid=lufv2h9xa48x

We got our hands Dirty... without ink? Some captures from outside work on the house yesterday! A billion thank-you's to the Board Members, Artists in Residence, Interns and Volunteers we could not live without that support our shop everyday. A very special thank you to Jessica Gillen our Secretary on the Board of Directors for stepping up to reclaim the outside of RCP house. Without her we could not have accomplished this successful facelift. Sun up to sundown and the outside of the house landscape is looking transformed... Have you been inside recently?! Spring cleaning is done and summer is in full swing. Come visit the shop Mondays 4-8pm for open studio and learn more about upcoming opportunities! Check it out... #tranformation #springcleaning #summertime #facelift #landscape #appreciation #thankyou #volunteer #noink #dirt #support #nonprofit @rubberctprints (at Rubber City Prints, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzD4k15pOLZ/?igshid=ek1qxhivxupa

We welcome Aspen to our Artist in Resident live in position at RCP for the summer! She will be in town until mid August, please give her a shout out and welcome her to Akron, Ohio. Aspen Barbro is 5’4” with 6’ energy and wants you to know it. She recently completed her fourth year at the University of Cincinnati and will graduate with a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts. Motivated by the physical aspect of creation and the process-oriented nature of print making, she challenges what a print it, or could be. This often manifests in the form of artists books, the occasional 11”x11” condom wrapper, and shrines to Dolly Parton. For the duration of her career she has been exploring topics such as gender performance/femininity, suburbia and domesticity, relationships, and the importance of language.The kitschy undertones deeply embedded in her practice speak directly to the experience of a twenty-something making work in the internet age. See her past work on Http://www.aspenbarbro.com If you want to be friends or hear some mediocre jokes, her instagram is @yungspen (at Rubber City Prints, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByG3tw9ptYy/?igshid=19bzpo8wdx7l0
