four things

one

three

and four

revise

Yesterday's project:

Once this was a shirt-jacket kind of thing, made about 20 years ago.  One of the sleeves tore. I cut deeper arm holes and added pockets.  Now it's a vest kind of thing. The fabric is hemp and has soften through the years.  It's also shrunk and become a tighter weave.

The assistant:

Timber had his own ideas about arrangement.

The window:

I was intrigued by the window while looking at the photos.  This is unaltered, I just cropped this section of the photo from the one with Timber.

The altered version:

Grateful this morning for shelter and running water (which I don't have but will again sooner or later).

layered, day forty seven

and complicated... 

dreaming, day forty six

Spring will come...

release, day forty two

Found the fish while doing some cleaning/organizing.

I will be releasing it somewhere. 

This morning I finish stitching a new neckline on a t-shirt that is a revise of another t-shirt.  The neckline was a little too loose/low for me. 

Releasing this from the mending pile.

And just 'cause:

Wishing everyone a good last day of 2023...

 

and, day nineteen

I played a bit more with the image from last night. 

A few "ah-ha" moments. 

And today's dot that makes me think of an universe or a cloud over the moon...

doodle with dot, day eighteen

Keeping it simple...

dot as mask, day fifteen

erasing time.

just to see, day ten

Colors not altered, just layered.

more, day seven

More stars.

Now that I am more sure with my folds I've started making stars with old paper.

More fragile. 

A brief trip out into the garden this morning to capture, hopefully, a sense of cold.

And a sense of light. 

I couldn't capture the light without layering images.

Back inside, playing.

It was on my mind to make a butterfly. 

Maybe because a coworker found a pupa tucked up in a door...

maybe it was the moth outside my own door frame.
