New photo series: Half Mile Cigarette
This series was a spontaneous one. You see, there’s this park not too far from my house, and one day I decided I wanted to walk over there. To get there, I have to cross a very high-trafficked street. Once I started getting close to the park, I noticed some strange things laying on the … Continue reading »

I even … Continue reading »

(sneak preview) How my newest mixed media series came together
Ever since I was a teenager, about once or twice a year I suddenly get this uncontrollable urge to paint. Like, BING! I have an idea and I want to paint it. Since this doesn’t come around too often, when I feel like I “have” to paint, I’ve learned I better pick up that brush … Continue reading »
It was a long drive…
My sister-in-law Katee and I drove down to Sandestin, FL earlier this month. It was a long drive… and I, as usual, had some yarn handy… (and a cell phone that doesn’t take very good photos): Above: (Left):: Every time Katee and I have gone to a wedding or baby shower together the last three … Continue reading »
Handmade felt magnets
Magnets I’ve made lately:: A Jerry’s sno-cone made especially for its biggest fan… …and a little heart with me and my husband’s initials embroidered on it. I’ve been making a few felt magnets lately and am planning on selling them at Christmas at the Ritz later this year (more info on that later). : )
