tea for two...

forgotten treasures found alongside the highway

time...

daydreams...

refraction...

you whispered...

good morning in my ear.

a new space...

completely changes your eye.

...

new mornings...

today i saw this...

camano island...

how we craved the quiet of morning, watching the sun burn the frost.

snow park...

our home-sick-snow-hearts felt alive with the breath of winter again.

old growth in the city...

evening walks...

are such a lovely reminder to open your eyes.

quiet mornings...

hot off the press

these pieces i took down last week from the show at anthropologie. they are all hand embroideries on paper, encased in a vintage, hardback book.

the season of memory...

this is my most recent work. it is very new, so there are a number of things i am still learning through the processes of making and watching.

i am investigating the relationship between surface and image and the ways in which they reflect and resonate with ideas memory and photographic documentation.

hand embroidery on leaf.

here today...

gone tomorrow.

oh the days...

of being unemployed are over. thank goodness. and now my schedule is balancing out (finally), allowing me to blog and update on a regular basis again. whew.

this is the most recent thing that has been keeping me very busy. i have a solo show at the downtown seattle anthropologie. they do a monthly "local featured artist" program to give local, up and coming artists exposure, and i just finished installing last week. if you are in the seattle area, please go check it out! everything is for sale, and anthropologie doesn't take any portion of the sales! these are some shots of the show.

each drawing is hand embroidered on paper and then encased in a vintage, hard back book that i made frames out of. the books are drilled through and stitched shut, and each drawing is enveloped in a museum quality, archival, acid free protecting paper.

tempus fugit...

terribly sorry it has been so long since my last posting. life has picked up its pace as of late, and i am in need of some time re-structuring. here are a few shots from a day of reading at the ballard locks. this is the first king fisher i have seen in the wild.
a number of seals were also spotted, but they are rather elusive swimmers.
