page from house&gardenKansas : a reconstructed book
i have been very quiet and very busy. going to the office every day, sure, but also working like a demon at finishing books, and scanning scanning scanning and making web galleries. it's done enough to show. be afraid. there will be more.

it was a good long weekend at home. we took some long walks. watched a movie from the library. ate pretty well (pesto from my garden!). i made a few pictures and read a book and missed the girls (the usual things). but most time was spent at the artTable feeling productive and happy. apparently at the same time wished i would "do something with those dragonflies", i was transferring them to watercolor paper! great minds! the prints came out really well and i was quite happy with them. the digital prints are fine, too, but i believe i got too carried away with the object-making aspect of mounting them and they seem a bit busy.
i am *very* happy with the tiny mezclado's though! image transfers of the garages and pointy houses with waxed chinese paper fringe! oooooooooo! i LOVE waxing paper. it has the coolest smooth feel. i have put these new things on etsy.
