Living The Creative Life…Visiting Lee Imonen
In February of 2007, Roger and I went to Dexter, Oregon, to the home and studio of sculptor Lee Imonen. Roger was preparing to write an article on Lee and his work for “Sculpture” magazine. We had lunch and they began to talk. I prowled the house, took some photos, drew some pictures, listened to […]
Happy New Year!
It was bound to happen. The old year ground to a halt–a nice old year from here. Gearing up for the new year ahead, thinking of all the things to do and how to maintain a cheerful attitude while doing them…eek, eek. We kept to our tradition of the last decade–starting the new year “ON […]
Christmas Week
The week draws to a close and we’re thinking about New Year’s Eve, party time, a whole year ahead. But this Christmas was a nice one with family and a yummy turkey dinner made by Marie. Roger and I spent two more days in Portland after Christmas, before rolling back to Salem today. We took […]

Construction Rhythms
I never realized before (never having lived on a job-site) the pace of construction. Mornings, early, are when the stuff is delivered, and this can take HOURS. Big trucks come, flat beds, and then a trailer with a fork lift maybe, or maybe they use one of the two big hydraulic lifts from the job […]
In the Eye of the Storm…
Three straight days of rain and wind–glad to be inside today in the studio. We’re home midday after a nice Portland weekend during which we drank about 2 gallons of coffee and ate some good food. Only one latte though–Staccato Gelato–accompanied by one of the Saturday (and Sunday) only homemade triple ginger donuts. MMMMM. After […]
