painting paterns

pink on pink, a new title for a show? I'm loving this soft new style... We're off to Geneva soon to play with our cousins, and then down to Italy for some summer sun and Sardinian beaches! Will be back in the fall to pack for our big move... Have a lovely summer all!

Wet Felting

I've been having fun with felt and soapy water during the heat wave here, even though I should be packing! The boys have been making loads of colorful wee willy worms too, and playing with the water...

More Life Drawing...

I'll be sad to leave my drawing class, it's been great to pick that up again. We went to the Robert Gordon degree show in Aberdeen this weekend and that was inspiring too, who knows what will come in the future...

Scotland

Matteo and I went away this weekend to look around Aberdeen and the area in general. We stopped in St. Andrews to see a friend and then drove around in the city of Aberdeen and down lots of country roads outside...

ribbon wands & doll houses

We made ribbon wands with the children as a spring craft acitivity. They wave them around outside or wear them as crowns.

I helped make some doll houses for the summer fair, and they're lovely and so simple.

A cup ah...

Ah, the English and their tea. I've really gotten used to English tea, with milk and sometimes sugar, redbush too, though now I'm sitting down with a lemon, fresh ginger & honey concoction (you can also put in cayanne pepper for an extra kick!)
