textures at the beach



Ron and I went to Ft. Stark Sunday morning. Tumbled shells, rusting iron, and even crumbling cement are beautiful here!

a little studio time



I made some recycled paper this week using shredded bills, old notes, and a sprinkling of dried hydrangea blossoms that were clipped to make way for this year's growth. It's hard to imagine new hydrangea blossoms right now, but I do believe spring has arrived despite today's wintry mix of precipitation. (See Ron's blog for the evidence.)

I think I have enough paper to make a small book. I don't know what will be in that book just yet, but I'm eager to try out a sewn binding.

We want to get the little dog accustomed to studio visits, and the picture of her in the window was taken in Ron's studio.
