Laughing Buddha

this is the craziest coolest thrift store bracelet ever. i found it for a buck a few weeks back at a senior thrift store i frequent.
it was only a dollar.



just thought i would share pics. hope the laughing buddha makes you smile.



am busy getting ready for my upcoming show at Nancy next week....tick tock. am super excited!

whales and sharks in the window

I do the window displays at my bookshop. For the summer I picked an ocean theme with one half filled with a variety of sea animals and one side all about whales. One of our product shipments came with aqua blue paper used in as cushion in the boxes, so I saved it up. I thought it would be perfect for a marine window. It has been a big hit for the past week, kids especially love it, I think they like how shimmery the blue is reflecting off the glass.







A novel I especially recommend is "The Highest Tide" by Jim Lynch. It is written by a local author and is set in Olympia. The main character is a 13 year old budding biologist who finds strange and wonderful creatures in the Puget Sound. I love the writing and it made me look differently at the water I have lived by all my life.

little landscapes

These are the newest in my mixed media book collage series. They are tiny at 3.5" by 4." I am really enjoying experimenting with my vintage book pieces. I try and use all fragments of the books that are used for my coasters. I love to meditate and concentrate on shapes and lines. I did these in just a couple of hours. Am getting a variety of works to choose from for my upcoming show at Nancy.
