the day has dawned bright blue with sun beaming down on the venetian canals filled with tidal sea water. things are being stirred in my unconscious. was up late playing in my travel journal. turning my thoughts towards a NEW YEAR. new life... rising to the surface.
hope you're well. and cozy. and brimming with big thoughts for the new year.
Up working in my book too. I got a digital picture frame for Christmas and I am displaying my photos as I work, sort of like traveling as I work. So much fun.

Mary Ann - This will be a very special New Year for you what with the new "career" and all. What a cool way to make the transition. Being away has probably given you a lot of time for introspection. Your surprise Christmas gift is just the start. You've had what my girlfriends and I call a "plate of shrimp moment." Long story about how we came to call it that but it's something hugely coincidental and serendipitous, with a sort of collective consciousness about it all rolled up into one. My nun friend calls them "Godincidences" - stay open and you can't go wrong girl! We're all cheering for you.

Gorgeous papers and how you have settled in! You look so at home in that work space Mary Ann! You sure you aren't going to stay there forever?

I'm catching up on posts I missed. What delicious paper! I've seen a few of these prints before and I have some of the green, but taken all together they look infinitely more amazing! I'm going back to stare at this pic for awhile before I move on.
