I went out to coffee with a bunch of artists the other day… and among the topics we talked about was the need to make things…a feeling I can identify from my earliest years. Today I sat in the back garden avoiding the heat and finishing the red and white quilt while also looking at […]

My Year So Far…
Well today was only the first day of the new year for me and I did some stuff…not too much, but some…but first a couple of birthday shots…the window at Anthopologie where I HAD to buy a few plates the lettuce wraps and…then…what do you think this might mean???? and then today, the POST birthday […]
Saturday night at the ER
As I’ve listened to people comment on this blog they say “Oh you have too much fun” or “What a life you lead…all fun” and I think my impulse for happy and interesting talk is correct…but any life has other stuff too. Blogging and carrying a camera all the time makes you kind of into […]
Another Art Saturday…
Up to Portland today to see some art before attending the artists’ reception at 12X16. Stopped at Elizabeth Leach Gallery to look at Malia Jensen’s “Shelved” which included bronze and cast crystal pieces and then a nice selection of Lee Kelly smaller works to compliment the big show of his work at The Portland Art […]
Tunnel Vision…
On the Washington side of the Columbia Gorge there are lots of tunnels. I got sort of interested in getting the perfect tunnel shot BUT…it isn’t that easy I discovered…this is going to call for further research I can see… I vote for #3. And just to cheer us up on a gloomy November day, […]

On Friday I put three coats of finish on the floor…one every three hours..and by Saturday afternoon it looked like this and then Saturday the “elves” arrived and helped us move in all the stuff. After sifting through the boxes and bags hurriedly packed when I left both the Annex and the cottage studio, I […]
Presenting: The Garden Studio!

Today was sunny and warm and started with a meeting, followed by a coffee and a read (…okay, NOT good news…but..we’re talking about single moments here…) and after two more meetings, and errands, I […]
Progress Report…The Garden Studio
Things are moving along here in construction-land…though not as fast as SOME of us might like…that would be me. But take a look. Friday Wayne put up the ceiling and walls, Saturday we primed, Sunday Bill painted and this morning Larry came and put up the lights… Now trim, plumber, floor, steps and gutters. Then, […]
The Garden Studio Build..inside
Uh oh…I’m losing track of days. Maybe today was day 6. Five and six were inside days…the beadboard ceiling went up, the walls… by the end of today it was a bit tidier…getting ready for priming and painting the walls this weekend Monday the electrical plugs and lights, then trim. The door and windows are […]
The Garden Studio…Day 3
Pouring, pouring rain most of the day today. But, the intrepid guys worked on with Kevin being totally soaked. Here’s how it looked in the first hour (Kevin on the roof) but when I got back from the gym…voila! Windows! (Electrician Larry on the left and contractor Wayne on the right.) Dan started working on […]
