Here's some left-overs/process from a recent freelance project. My Form and Methods class also used the photocopier to make some lovely formal experiments——ahhhha! I will post some of their work once I go through their documentation.
Finally after six years of slow slow work, the unfinished part of my upstairs is going to have insulation and heat and walls and electricity! Thanks DAD and Big Jay and Tim for all your help! Over winterbreak i'll paint and settle in. I'd like to have wallpaper in the stairwell and these are my picks for today: this one, and this one, and this one. And while we're at it: this for my kitchen, and this one just makes me crazzzzy!
I just reclaimed my old beloved Richard Scarry's Best Counting Book Ever. Sandwiched between the 70 Seventy spread was a translucent Radio Shack bag with some funny contents: a stack of dried pansies and this drawing of Lowly the Worm—my favorite Richard Scarry character. Mister Scarry kept my imagination busy for a huge chunk of my childhood. Come to find out his wife had the same name as my mother—Patricia Murphy.
in order: the Arboretum, the Guthrie (that mighty spider is 5 stories up and on the outside), a walk with my parents' dog, the garage at night, Minnesota Zooooo, and the great and icy Powderhorn.
hope you're all spending time with your best pals.

Working on a project ——quite last minute. For now, here's a preliminary sketch. I'm referencing knitting patterns that I found in Estonia; lot's of ideas and fun and toooo little time.
Marion Rich, my great grandfather, bred gladiolus for a living, grew up in Marion, New York and lived on Marion Avenue. I just found this account in the Marion Enterprise/1956.
