NEW TOYS

New art supplies!  Nothing better.

 Last July my friend and I ordered ceramic pallets for our studios.  We spent and afternoon painting pieces of paper narrowing down what color went where and which were the same.  It seems I had a few that were.

I ran out of time and came home with mine like the top pallet(only paper color).  Well...........you know we artist, at least me, are chickens.  I have no idea why but I just filled my pallet with the real thing yesterday, Oct 7.  It sure is pretty to look at.  I wonder how long it will be before I use it to paint

Back to a slower pace, or NOT!

Things are slowing down a bit.  No more Book Binding classes until Spring.  Our Winter has so much snow and cold and I live on a bad road for students to travel.  I will miss it but I wouldn't want any accidents.

My Journaling friends, Catherine and Karen, came over yesterday and we made books.  I found this fabric for the book cloth on a trip to Indiana to see my parents last weekend.  Catherine purchased the paper on a trip to Hollander's in Ann Arbor.  It just seem to fit so well.

We had a great time matching up paper and trading supplies.  It's always more fun with friends.

I had a few adventures this summer I'll try to start posting some of them soon.

Returning to a little slower pace or NOT
