The birds are back.

in trunks.
this weekend i hit up the always awesome trunk show down at the workroom. i was lucky enough to get there in time to snatch up some of melinda's awesome fabrics! i couldn't wait to use it in my journal. so voila, it makes a perfect head scarf for me and my cat.

and of course i went to tap class this week. i don't know what i am going to do when my class closes up for the summer. kyle is thinking of building me my own tap floor to put in the back yard. i fear for my neighbors.
the birds are back.

It is always important to draw a map of the important places you need to remember. i used to make maps of all of my forts when i was younger. i had many of these secret places dedicated to hiding out and eating penny candy...mmm...gummy bears. for some reason, i still believe the best gummy bears i ever had were from the priceville general store!

The Sneak
today i went into my back yard and dug a hole. i found shards of glass and worms...there is a serious amount of worms in our back dirt patch. i am going to dig a wider hole on the weekend. at some point i will fill these holes with some suitable soil, and plant some seeds, i am leaning towards red vegetables like radishes and beets...maybe also some rhubarb. i do like digging these holes.

dirt and leaves
wet mush on my jeans.
spring has been crying.

Day 22


I am loving this drawing challenge! This orange group makes me chuckle. I am thinking of doing a pattern of these guys, after some refinement. The night I drew this it was rainy and glum outside, this helped brighten up the situation.

this image fell out of the sky while out with my dad and sister on a boat trip around the thousand islands. such a good weekend. nothing like fresh air, miles of roads and water side to make you feel better inside.

Oh and i forgot to mention, if you are interested in seeing all the ds images i am working on, you can check them out here!

Day 16


this was inspired by a street pylon and a strange tent for housing construction gear i saw on my way to work one day. they make a good duo.
