Birthday gift for a friend: mixed media zebra fish with cutouts. I really enjoyed building up layers on the coloured paper with pencil, marker, paint (especially my lovely interference blue, which I rarely use). Drawing fish is fun.

Quote from 1998 version of MERLIN starring Sam Neil, Helena Bonham-Carter, Miranda Richardson, Martin Short and lots of fun people.

Beloved Memory: 

When I was 13 I saw Martin Short and his family at a restaurant in cottage country; he was yelling at his son for not wanting to eat his hamburger. Poor guy.

Going to see Shary Boyle next week; so excited, can't wait!

Self-portraiture, trying to capture an elusive feeling. The feeling I feel when I listen to melancholy notes of movie soundtracks: wistful longing.

I blame the "Water for Elephants Soundtrack".

Can't stop listening to this song; bringing back lots of memories. Nice to know it's not just me.

It felt very important to make this, this morning at 10 to 6:00. I've been listening to Elton now for 24 plays x 4 minutes & 42 seconds = 1.768 hours. I picture the William Shatner cover -- you know the one, don't deny--where he moon walks and sips liquor and looks all rugged and handsome like, speak-singing. I'd raise your kids on Mars, Bill....any day.

I am no pro but I am falling in love with type and I want to make beautiful babies with letters and love. New project: arrangements with song lyrics?

Remember kids: scanning is photography! Scanning fabric is fun; so is tinting it pink in photoshop.

I spy with my little eye...
A lot of pictures of me actually. Me: in a pretty baby contest; nuding it up at the beach; posing with William Wallace; decked out in authentic Native garb; being stoic in self-portraits; wearing a tablecloth as a veil.
