Next week at this time I hope to receive a call saying my camera is ready to be picked up. 



Img008_2 I had a touch of bronchitis last week and did this small piece (5"ish by 7"ish) last week to keep my mind engaged.  It says Spring to me. It says, can't I just close me eyes and sleep through winter?  It says wake me when these colours are in season again.



The borders are slightly wonky and not straight.  Its going to hang in my kitchen after I paint a canvas and mount it.  Today I'm going to doodle with thread on my sewing machine.  Its a play piece.  I'm going to time myself in 10 minute intervals and I can't stop the machine until the 10 minutes is over.  I'm only giving myself a minute between each 10 minutes and that is to change thread (my only pre-doodling decision).  The piece of painted fabric is the size of a legal pad.

  3. I love it. The stitching is so beautiful. What are you going to title your posts after you get your camera back?

  4. Wonderful colors and textures, I agree it speaks of spring. "Framing" it with painted canvas will certainly do it justice- and no question about whether or not it is ART!!
