I finally have a pretty full etsy shop and even more things to add. I love the way the ttv's turn out on the Kodak Endura Metallic paper. This paper has a glow that I am really surprised by and it is beautiful. I, also, have been at work in my studio on a simple kind of earring that is very reasonable in price for these times.

very sad day...
new stuff going on........
It has been a long time, probably 6 months since I have felt a new sense of creativity envelope me. I am learning some sculpture techniques for jewelry and actually making some beads again. I have been very busy making necklaces and other pieces that I love but these new items will add to what I already do. I am loving all of it right now. Of course, the holidays are filling my days with other things so I am exhausted but that's ok. It's nice to want to be working hard.

Day after ....

It has been an interesting election so far. Last night I saw this happen and it made me feel especially good about my choice, not only because this is a brilliant man who will lead this country honestly but he is good and kind.

quietly two ....
I wish that I could somehow see if seeing something beautiful would change McCain into a decent human being. He certainly tried to pull a fast one on the Democrats today. Finally, the Democrats have a brilliant man running for president and a campaign that is smart too.
My new tank top came today..".Obama 08 This time I want a smart president" . I will wear it a lot. Got it from Cafepress.

storm rolls in at sunset .....
This election is making me want to sit and look at God's landscape a lot more than dealing with people. I am so fortunate that I have so many smart women around me.
When I am in Colorado I have this view and I have a group of artists who understand that this world must be for everyone, not just the privileged.
....and now I am about to go back to Atlanta, a state that unfortunately may go to McCain but I have my daughter's there. They strive to be good and caring to all mankind. They work hard and make the right things important. I'm a lucky soul.

cottonwoods .....
This beautiful park in Ridgway. The grass seems greener than anywhere else and the small town feel is enough to make you stay here forever. Sitting and dreaming and feeling the cool breeze of autumn on your skin.
evening by the bench .. ttv .....
We've been here in Ridgway for over a month. I feel at home and we are settling in differently this summer. I think because we stayed for over a month in June and part of July, we were able to just slip back into "being at home" when we got back in early August. We have a nice garden and our little house is cozy and warm....although the chill winds are blowing and the leaves are touched with gold.

cosmos on the deck .....
I was so happy to get back to Colorado and actually have a garden and beautiful flowers on the deck. The chipmunks haven't been that busy.

Ouray Artist's Alpine Holiday
I was very happy to have this photograph and a watercolor juried into a show in Colorado this month. A very good inspiration to paint more and photograph much more!
We are in Ridgway for about 6 weeks...It will be beautiful and inspiring.

We had a great party today. At my grandaughter's house...brave woman, my daughter. A magic theme with a magic man. The bunny was the very big hit. Out he popped!

all the way down the valley.....
Just one of the most beautiful views in the world. I am leaving to spend some time there in a week and a half. It will be heavenly......and this view is from my yard.

just a flutter .....
This is from the Birmingham Gardens a few years ago. I am still in love with it.
We tried to see' Brideshead Revisited' tonight. Huge storm in Atlanta...electricity went off in the theater and it is probably still off.....5 hours later!

sunset golf......
I took a short detour when I drove my grandaughter home this evening. I used to live across from this beautiful scene and as I get older I find it more and more lovely. It is peaceful and a very special place.
road to town .....ridgway
It just isn't fair that eeryone cannot see the way the Cimmarons light up at sunset. It is magical and mystical.
practice.......
An interesting chance to see the difference a ttv makes in a photograph. All reversed and so vintage looking.
birthday concert.......

Just amazing how quickly a child can learn. We listened to Josie play and it was beautiful and a total joy.
