something, anything


back in the land of winter-grey

fog and mist

lights on all day

 people think the north is dark - they've not lived in the Shuswap

a busy first week... company, wonderful visits, appointments, Christmas decorating

yesterday I finally had a bit of time in the studio

sorted through a few of things I've worked on lately

found a few printed photos that intrigued me

cut here, then there

flip it around

lay this beside it


linen gathered shibori-style

painted

photographed

enlarged

converted to black and white

cut into strips of varying widths

try a large blue section with a narrow strip of the white




then try the opposite


it might seem like more of the same old, same old but it's a good way for me to settle in

tonight I sorted through linen scraps for gel-printing and painting

pressed and some ready to gather

still a few busy days ahead but now a few things to dabble with until next week

feels like something

feels like home
