our recent trip to the fayetteville public library with our little family. their children’s section is breath-taking if youve never been. our girls always love it.

“smile dee-dee”

raine has two imaginary friends that she has known since she was two:. dee-dee (the nice one) and tada (pronounced Tah-dah, like the word you used to say as a kid when you finished something amazing; shes the misfit of the two imaginary girls).

the other morning, dee-dee temporarily came to life in the form of a shadow. raine drew her on our frosty glass door and we were pleasantly surprised to see the shadow ghost on the wall next to her. so when i got the camera out, she grabbed dee-dee’s imaginary shadow hand, then turned to her and said “smile dee-dee”.

laundry…{yes it’s real}

mountain of cloth diapers and perrodin clothing…good thing these have been folded since the photo. you would think that by the size of this pile that we dont do laundry all that often, but this is the result of maybe 2-3 days of waiting. the cloth diapers make up most of the volume, but dont let that be discouraging to those of you considering their use!

…there was something mysterious and beautiful about this moment…

{pod}

i found this one morning while walking raine to school. im not sure what it is, or where it came from, but it was beautiful. raine was just dying to break it open…

inspiration in the forest…

photos from a walk in the woods…these may quite possibly show up in some later works…nature is definitely inspiring…

morning finds…

I found this lovely dried magnolia tree bud and a small piece of rusted metal while on a morning stroll….i thought they fit perfectly together in this fruit jar…finding things such as this always reminds me that I want to make a small bag to carry with me on my walks so that way I am not filling every pocket or hand with my treasures…

anticipation

I have gourds growing…and absolutely cannot wait until they are dried so I can begin creating things with them. First and foremost Raine and I will be making spooky gourds for decorations this year instead of the traditional carved pumpkins (since we have no pumpkins)! Iwill post pictures once the creations begin.

warm room

This was taken at my in-laws house, formerly my art studio, now a room of randomness that still offers a kind welcome with its warm, comfortable feeling…

Paul Klee vs. DNA….

A relatively new company named DNA11.com will take your DNA and create a highly digitized image of your very own DNA sequence. Each and every print that they create represents an individual person and is a “one of a kind” artpiece. To get your own print made all you do is select what size and color of a print you want, then a few days later a saliva kit will arrive in the mail, which you use and then mail back to DNA11. DNA11′s labs then process your DNA to capture your genetic fingerprint, make a artistically rendered snapshot of it and mail the print back to you. DNA artwork starts at $390 and ranges up to $1300.

To me this looks relatively close to much of Klee’s work….wouldnt you agree? whats happening to “Fine art”?
