Where ya been?

July 27th, 2008






This is the illusive Sasha, who is currently stalking a grasshopper. She and the other meows were very happy to see us return from a weekend away. We drove to upstate NY for a wedding yesterday. The hotel was cute, the people were friendly, but the city we stopped in was in rough shape.

The drive up was beautiful though and we had a good time on the drive and at the wedding. Tonight, I'm zonked.

I received a sketchbook in the mail today as part of a swap and I started drawing in it tonight while relaxing and watching some baseball. The pages are thin and a bit see-through, so I've started making a story that's building on the layered look of the drawings showing through. Fun stuff! Hope you had a wonderfully creative weekend!

Just wanted to say thanks for the book recommendations in your side bar, I’m going to try Marrying your muse, it sounds excellent.
Thanks again!

How fun to create a layered look on the thin pages…talk about making lemonaide! You are so clever and talented too.

I think that is a truly excellent idea, Leah, for the sketchbook you’re adding too :) I think I would be zonked too, after such a full weekend!

By the way, I can’t wait to write you back a proper email :)

Sending you heaps of love!

Cool idea with the see through pages. I really should get involved in a swap of some sort. Sounds like fun.

Hey, how far upstate NY (always interesting to see what people consider as upstate NY) We now refer to where we are as “way” upstate which is actually about mid state, then there is “way-way” upstate as in Plattsburgh.

looks great! how fun to do a sketchbook swap. :)
