As always I am playing with symbolism. Let the sunshine in...a good year awaits.

UNTITLED

Back to Sepia--My Favorite

Note to Self: Burn In to Darken Bright White of Window? Experiment, or leave as is. Stark contrast has impact. THROUGH A WINDOW (FROSTED)

Continued experimenting with new little camera. Decided to use it only for black and white thereby reviving a neglected skill. Black and white photography with sepia tone was always my favorite. It feels good to be back doing it again. Time to practice, practice, practice.

Here Is What's Happening

Company's Coming and We Are Cleaning
Renaissance Dress Purchased for "Betty"
Thinking About and Planning Drawing

We are getting ready for company. Benefits of having visitors include: a neat, clean house. Another benefit is going through "stuff." Around here odd items are the norm. How many people have two mannequins sitting in their bedroom? Oh, by the way, yesterday I won the bid on a Renaissance dress for "Betty" and am looking forward to making her several headdresses to compliment her new outfit. Then, she can pose for a portrait.

May do drawing of a stone house window.

How weird...before I could finish writing this, it suddenly got published. What is that about? What a surprise! Yikes! Hope that doesn't continue happening.
