Photos

I made the committment at the end of the semester that I wouldn't let the summer fly by without going out and taking photos. Last summer I said I would do this and I didn't (for one reason or another). So on Wednesday I went out and shot. I love doing this...there are no requirements, no parameters...just me, the camera and whatever I can find to photograph. Here are some samples.

Book Class

For Maymester (an entire semester crammed into the month of May) I am taking a class called "Artist Books." I LOVE IT. I have enjoyed making books for a long time...now I get to learn new techniques. Here is a photograph of the journal I made for the class.








Today we also learned the basics of printmaking (which is a lovely art media)...tomorrow we learn accordion folds (I love you Japanese Lotus Book!). I am enjoying it, although it is pretty intense.

Quote of the Day

"Sometimes the universe celebrates with you. And just because you don't have someone to share the celebration with, doesn't make it less beautiful."

(Don't remember who said it, but they said it well!).
