Hi everyone & welcome back to my blog. I feel bad that things have been so spotty lately... with the cold that lasted forever (spores!) I swear I thought I was done for. Also, we moved! Just down the street, but down the street from our good friends is good news around here. The day went without a hitch and the new house is really very sweet.
Our wireless was hooked up today so I'm back online reporting from my still-unfolding room & art making space. I'm excited to put some energy back into the blog on a consistent basis, even have some new Etsy shops I'm excited to share with you! We are still unpacking, accumulating furniture, and I'm on the hunt for a job- so there are many factors going on behind the scenes of laying out my pens and pencils. We will see how the rest of this winter unfolds.
It has been on my mind to get back into blogging regularly, and certainly there is a lot going on in the Handmade community. I'm really excited to be back in action and ready to dust off the blog, warm up the Gocco, and bring on the photo editing! More news as the days unfold, but its good to be back. Oh yes.
Ah, I hope you all had sweet Valentine's weekends. Oregon celebrated its 150th birthday on the very special day of February 14th, how sweet. Here I'm looking ahead to a new week & new projects. And what helps to put any Etsy seller in a good mood? Being in a Treasury of course! This collection was put together about Gocco artists- one of my favorite themes to look at as well as be a part of:
Lovely!
Hello all, I hope this post finds you having a happy Valentine's day & great weekend. Here on the home front I hit the ground more with a splat than a bang--- my camera is acting funny. The photographs in this post are actually favorites from the blog last year, not being the biggest fan of my own posts without pics. 
Ah, friends. Sorry to not have blogged very much as January ended and February has begun. I came back from my vacation with a long lasting illness, but not quite the schedule for laying around in bed catching up on my computer work. I'm happy to say as I've been recovering I've also been packing: I'm moving again! In the last year this blog has covered 5 moves, and this will be the last one for a while. Just down the street from our good friends here in se Portland, the new house holds the promise for watercolors, Gocco silkscreen printing- and maybe even letterpress! You can imagine my excitement, but also what has been keeping me busy all this time. Moving day is tomorrow, so have a good weekend my dears and I'll see you on the other side!
