Technicolor Dreams of Amy's Fence


A piece I did from Amy's 'A Million Words Project'. The bottom picture is the original. I inverted the colors in the top picture. I love the original photo, and thanks to Amy for letting me doodle with it.

Mail, Glorious Mail!







I love mail. Really.
Yesterday I received the beautiful antique card from Paula at Tattered Gold, a Waterhouse postcard as a gift from a Postcrossing friend, my nieces confirmation graduation in Germany and today I received the palm tree from Ann Vivian, a friend of mine from 7th grade when I lived in Lousiana.

My mailbox is doing back flips!

Doorway Around the Block

I take a lot of walks around the block while I'm at work at the Main Library downtown.
This is my favorite doorway, and I love to watch it change with the seasons, mild as they generally are.

A House in Chalkis, Greece


I guess you have to have an open mind for this one, because my husband said the cracks underneath the window look like a giant clam shell. Now that's all I can see.

Just Another Walk Around the Block



A couple of photos I took this week and after playing around with
befunky.com again, this is what I ended up with.
Happy funky Friday!

A Chair to Sit In Postcard

For Sumiko in the U.K. who likes homemade cards. My mother told me once long ago a story about "just wanting a nice chair to sit in." I love you Mom! Happy Mother's Day.

Yesterday a Child Came out to Wander

Thanks to Joni Mitchell for the lyrics of my life and to David for making my Beacon Hill dream come true. All the inspiration I needed on a Friday night, as well as the seasons going 'round and 'round. (p.s. Annie's music, as well).
