Mutterings and musings, sketches and processes. Thursday, February 14, 2013.

Mutterings and musings, sketches and processes. Monday, May 11, 2009. I can make myself sit down and come up with a story or image. I have been trained to do it and can, but those ideas usually feel forced and the projects fizzle out. The best ideas.the ones that live and breath on their own.seem to just come to me, and usually at inopportune times. Phewcreativity reigned and contained on paper. I'd work on hatching the idea in the morning. She just wouldn't leave me alone. I'll end with my new favorite ...

(I had the option between getting a Nook or a Kuerig last fall and I chose the Nook. I chose correctly.). And so the experimenting began. The final result was this method that works beautifully! Step 3 - C...

Mutterings and musings, sketches and processes. Sunday, October 24, 2010. Thanks to all who participated in the drawing! Will be taking a luxury cruise (or short ride in a padded mailer) to his new home this week. In response to requests, a small number of the Sunny Spot Puppets.

Anything we can do to raise breast cancer awareness helps!
