Pop Up Print Show

 An advantage of in person workshops is seeing what is created just next to you. Taking a look at what fills the clothesline is always a  splenid lift.

Can It Be More Fun

 Yes, it's great to be among other makers, but when you get to be part of the party, part of the show, well, it really is fun. We had a great week, with great mates. I'll be back next year!

It's a Breeze

 A glorious day to print. And motifs galore! Can't figure what would top this.

Printing in Series

This give you an idea of the progression Deb made with her printing Layers and layers, each adding to the composition. So fun to see those spoons change in the body of work she did. 

Teaching at Coupeville, Washington

 Another night with low bandwidth for a post. It was a grand day of printing and a field trip to visit Marcia Derse's studio.

Time Out

 

Here is a view of the adorable little house where I'm staying with a few other people in the class. It's a set of officer's houses built in the early 1900s. The view is great, and the home cozy and quiet. 

Barracks With a View

Fort Casey Inn has just what I need -- salt air and a VIEW. It's a swell place to camp out while at the Pacific Northwest Art School and my workshop this week. We'll get started tomorrow, can't wait.
 

Room With a View

A brief walk through the Chicago airport made me realize 1) they spend a lot of time and money giving people windows in an airport and 2) rectangles made good patterns.
 

Yes, I Found That Hour

Finally got that machine riding over the last quilt I made, and it's so easy to grab and hour here and there. One reason I have the machine at the home studio and not away. I do love to do this drawing on the work. 
 

Oh, It's Crying Time Again...

...I'm gonna leave you. I can see that far away look in your eyes. I can tell by the way you pack my suitcase, that it won't be long before it's flying time. (Apologies to Buck Owens.)
 

Jake Night

After a nine day stretch listening to music with the Rochester International Jazz Festival, I was ready to spend another night hearing world class music to break the withdrawal.  So I bought a ticket to hear Jake Shimabukuro play his ukulele. Perfect cure.
