Saturday was all about the eco-dyeing and printing and it was Hot. I wrapped and cooked 11 bundles, fabrics I’ll use to make some wall pieces for my upcoming show “Must Love Art”.
As the sun was going down, I felt like a kid that had been playing in the dirt […]
A good-sized batch of my scarves will be winging it’s way toward the east coast soon
It will include 12 of the eco-printed variety
And, 12 of my breakdown screen-printed kind, too

The snow is still falling and temperatures freezing. The dye pot deck area is a blanket of white.
And I am dreaming of spring, warmer days, the greening up of things, the smell of walnuts simmering in the pot.
Dates have now been confirmed for my next Eco-Dye Playshop. […]
Two Art Business trips – check.
Teaching a 2 Day Workshop – check.
My first big solo show in Boulder opening the night before my workshop – check.
All of these things happening this month – priceless (and a little nutty too)! Hardcore evidence of the law-of-attraction in motion.

water water everywhere

Art, Aspen, airplanes, apple trees, campfires, cows, chickens, sheep, horses, pigs, mountains, hot springs, farms, family, and fried foods.
2 weekends, lots of travel, people, and places – a good rousting change of scenery, a momentary respite from the corporate grind, and a spinning wheel of new perspectives and gratitude.

Ahhh, Springtime in the Rockies…Summer
Last weekend I was hitting golf balls on the range, doing my part to get out and enjoy the 80 degree weather, easing into the sudden arrival of summer here in northern Colorado.
On Monday, another warm sunny day, I unbundled another of my eco-dyed silk scarves which I […]
Sitting here watching the snow continue to fly for the third straight day – with upwards of 2 feet already on the ground – I’m thankful that this storm didn’t arrive until Monday. Our weekend workshop was a great sunny experience, even though we did battle the winds all day on Sunday.
Thanks to RMCQ […]
My artist talk on Monday night for RMCQ went well – despite the winter storm warning (AND the men’s college basketball championship), we had a pretty good turnout. Not sure that the basketball championship really kept anyone from attending, although I’m thankful I wasn’t also competing with a season premiere of Downton Abbey.
