Sketchy

So all summer long I have been busy sketching, sewing and producing new work. Here are some bits & pieces. I have a couple of shows in September, then full force in November-December. Check back as I am planning on posting a sketch a day.

Original without color...



Maybe fabric? Or a print?

Summertime Blues

It is the end of August and I must say I am NOT ready for my kids to head back to school. It has been a great, but short summer. Weather has just kicked in and I am not ready for a schedule! Oh well, I guess I still hold onto that childish dream of endless summer.

The shed that Ted built from the wood we milled from out property...so cute, er I mean rugged!



fried pickles...who knew?



I could not identify, buy I like.



Broken thumb, only to be followed by a broken nose. Maybe I am glad summer is coming to an end!



The bird that sat in the nest of eggs, that I never saw hatch, but Ted saw all the little chickadees romping early one morning and then gone!



The boys enjoying the Windjammer parade.


A phone pole that has seen many, many band posters, my 12 year old had never seen such stapled beauty.



Rocks that T-Moe collected for me. Heart them!



The wood I split & the kids stacked, and stacked & stacked!

Barters Island in the summertime

There is nothing as good as hanging out at the cottage on Barter's Island with good friends & family. I had the pleasure of hanging with the girls this weekend. Some of us have known each other since grammar school. Such a nice way to spend a lovely weekend. Hiking, sunning, eating, drinking and talking til the wee hours. LOVE you girlies!
