YELLOW MAKES ME SMILE


Yellow is sometimes elusive in the winter.


Of course there is always the moon...


...and the warm glow of lamplight...

...then it hit me...


...even without an early spring...

...at my house yellow is always everywhere...


...my grandmothers cream and sugar bowl...


...my morning coffee...

...my kitchen, dinning room, and living room are all yellow...
because yellow makes me smile...

...lesson learned...

AT THE END OF THE DAY...when you are looking for something look right in front of your nose first...

HOW DO YOU SAVE DAYLIGHT?



How does losing an hour make more time?  Will I still have time for my afternoon nap?  Why do I need an afternoon nap? 

OK...OK...I have been told my whole life I ask too many questions...but I can't help myself.

                                                                               NAP TIME


babies sleep their days away
gaining strength and knowledge


teens sleep thru their hormone years
until they leave for college


so why do we in middle age
when life is finally soaring
still feel the need to nap each day
and fill the air with snoring
                            ~FK~



It might be time to wake up from that long winters nap...

but...AT THE END OF THE DAY... I refuse to quit asking questions.

COME SAY HELLO



There is always more to do but the studio has been rearranged and cleaned out and my studio sign is finished and finally up.  If you are out this way and see the open sign stop by and see me.

I'll be open today from 10 am to 4 pm.

I'm working on getting new photos mounted...among other projects.

Endings


My dry point class is going well.  Like everything else the more I practice the easier it gets.  For me the inking is the hardest ...I am such a naturally messy person but that too is improving with practice, and patience.  



Don't know how far I'll take this technique because buying a printer is out of the question...but if it comes right down to it there are a few options.

and...AT THE END OF THE DAY...exploring is so much fun.
