Dandelion Time

near southside of Lake Hiawatha, Minneapolis, MN

This time I took a photo of the work in progress. We don't get too many of these sunny, cool gorgeous days for outdoor painting. I'm thankful I was able to enjoy it!

Creative Endeavors

My marks on the pages of my sketchbook/journal help me to become more aware of my surroundings; a visual diary and sequential record of days of my life. Sometimes I'm working from my car, an "onsite studio". Almost always these drawings are "drawn on location".

My knitting and my weaving are other ways for me to explore color and texture; to use my hands to create and build up. Again the choices are a sequential record. The inches, feet and yards of cloth become a "journal", similar to the way pages eventually make up a book. I prefer to weave the design as I go along rather than to have it all figured out ahead of time.
