windy
ALT: crayon and ink, abstract. it’s a lot of swooshy ink lines, with a few splashes of orange, blue, and green. it could be a few people tossing a disc on a windy day, if you squint I suppose

garden days
ALT: ink line drawing of a small plant with just a few leaves, its roots showing in a space in the ground that is striped with horizontal lines. There are other spaces in the ground, they might be rocks or whatnot. A row of grasses forms the horizon line, and two clouds above, with horizontal lines echoing the pattern on the ground.

springtangle
ALT: ink and water-soluble crayon and graphite. Abstract, decorative. a tangle of swirls like vines and leaves, in green, russet and gold. There’s a sort of snail shell in the very center, and all the other lines seem in motion around and through it.

ALT: ink and water-soluble crayon drawing of a goofy fox-like critter with enormous ears, a floofy tail, and a grin. sitting under a tree, I guess.

little late for a march hare
ALT: ink and water-soluble crayon. portrait of a hare in some sort of clothing (badly sketched jacket I suppose). they look a little wistful I think.

unravel
I spent all day Saturday sitting in Open Town Meeting for my VT town, almost finishing crocheting a hat for my brother. When I checked out my work on Sunday I decided to undo all the work I had done, because it didn’t come out the way I wanted. When I work it up again, it will be better.
ALT: ink, abstract. a black wash and salted thick circle with thinner threads of blue, purple and orange spinning off it on the outside and inside.

cease lug
ALT: ink. yeah, it’s sort of a sea slug, blobby yellow, with a red stripe down its back, a pair of eyes on stalks, with long tendrilly lashes, on a pretty green, blue and purple background.

sweet rest
ALT: ink. a large tree leans over on the right side of the page, a smaller or more distant one on the left. roots below, perhaps a pool between the trees – or maybe just rising mist.
Oh also, here are some more darn stars.

more play with fiber scraps and ink
ALT: abstract, with glued bits of yarn and thread, and pooled ink. the image could be seen as a purple doggish critter, ears upraised and head turned as if in sudden movement. or you might see something completely different, or nothing at all but swoops of line and color.

winter garden.
As the season moves toward spring, and green buds and shoots are starting to brave the world, we had a snowfall here, nearly an inch. It all melted very fast, but a reminder how early spring so often is a dance between the cold and the warm, intertwined in a way that is quite lovely though sometimes inconvenient.
Since I’ve been obsessed with making little stars and flowers from yarn woven onto pipe-cleaner frames (“darn stars”), my work table it covered with fiber scraps. perhaps inevitable that some would eventually get glued down to a page.
ALT: ink and fiber, abstract. perhaps a glass vase on the right, and leaning over it a branch with no leaves, but maybe watery and fibrous … flowers?
