I have a huge collection of buttons! I’ll be showing it and making custom buttons at an antique fair on June 1 in Cottage Grove. Stay tuned for more info.

A month after the ice storm, that snow is looking dangerously close.
It may look a bit weird, but this photo is my little bag of pressed curds, hanging there dripping off their last little bit of whey.
This poinsettia, in particular, looks as though it’s been painted already!
This is a drippy beeswax candle among the boughs of a tree. I wanted to capture the feeling that the candle is actually producing light.
What a dashing fellow, and possibly a good subject for a future painting. 🙂
A natural fence of cat tails dividing fields… could be a good inspiration for a painting.
Basil is a prolific herb and also a very preservable one! How to dry it for later use…
What the heck are these weird looking things? Garlic whistles, of course! But what are they good for?
Why bother growing dandelions? Because these dandelions are tinted with pink!
Yellow is a pretty unusual color for an African Violet, and this one is showing off its flower power!
With African Violets, it’s super easy to make baby plants from momma leaves.
Didn’t quite get through all of the almond bark, pretzels and sprinkles at holiday time. These are super easy to make so why not any time of the year?
Elekitty, Piggitty, Spiddtt, Citykitty, Snakitty… an illustration of what these kitty/other being hybrids might look like if they could actually exist.
If I take nothing else away from this year, it would be this: living with love is the most important thing…
If Oregon is known for anything, it’s the towering fir and hemlock trees that cover the mountains and valleys with a shady blanket of forest. If this doesn’t say “state in the Pacific Northwest” then I don’t know what does. 🙂 Free Graphic: shape of Oregon (with trees)
Someone asked for an outline of the state of Oregon with the blue and gold of the state flag and the beaver icon, the state animal. Here it is, enjoy! Free Graphic: shape of Oregon
