Studio Friday: Comfort
The theme at Studio Friday is "Comfort". I looked around my studio today and found that my design & art books are my comfort. Just seeing them all lined up and waiting to be used for reference or pleasure is my comfort. I just ordered some new Jim Krause design books that I'll hopefully get next week from Amazon. You can never have too many books. :-)
What Color Green Are You?
You Are Teal Green |
You are a one of a kind, original person. There's no one even close to being like you. Expressive and creative, you have a knack for making the impossible possible. While you are a bit offbeat, you don't scare people away with your quirks. Your warm personality nicely counteracts and strange habits you may have. |

Studio Friday: Secret Stash
I've been keeping up with "Studio Friday" each week and I've finally decided to participate. Each week in "Studio Friday" a different theme is established to highlight a portion of the studio or work in progress. My "Secret Stash" are these fruit/veggie people salt/pepper shakers that I collect. I'm pretty particular, though :-). They have to have "made in japan" on the bottom. They also have to be fruits or vegetables with human attributes—even though I do have a pair of raindrops with faces and a spoon and fork with human features. I love these because they are very colorful and so ugly they're cute.

"V for Vendetta"
Saw "V for Vendetta" yesterday. Excellent movie with a timely plot and excellent cinematography. I want to be "V" for Halloween. :-) Go see it if you like movies that generate a lot of political and social discussion. *****

Springtime
In the "Nature" mode from my previous post, I'm posting a picture of some forsythia bushes that have just started blooming. I almost miss them each year because they're in the very back of my yard and usually it's too cold for me to get back there. Today was nice and warm so they got to be my subject of study.

Thursday Challenge: Nature
This was one of the first pictures I took with my new Canon Digital Rebel; it was also the only time I've ever seen a cicada coming out of it's shell—which was very cool. When I was little I use to love looking for the shells and making them cling to your shirt. I was pretty old before I ever actually saw an adult cicada. Another thing that's neat about these bugs is the amazing sounds they make in the summer, a regular bug choir.
