AEDM

Well It may have been quiet around these her blog parts, but my household has been a hive of activity.

Clicking the above image will take you to my flickr photos tagged with AEDM, of course I have been Creating a lot more than just these sketches.

This month i have…

• taught a bookbinding class and written the class materials!
• had three pottery classes where R. and I are trying to get things finished for christmas gifts.
• had a mini sketchcrawl with the group.
• Design a calendar for a Brisbane real estate agent,
• played with some hand lettering – thanks to Roz for the inspiration, nothing to share yet, just playing.
• Cleaned my kitchen cupboards out with R’s help (those of you who know me know that this requires herculean effort!)

It’s been a bit of a stressful time at work with the economic downturn, we have had some downsizing which I have been so far unaffected by except for losing an assistant. In these times you have to have your outlets and give them the respect they deserve and not turn to the tv for distraction.

Procrastination… now with pictures!

I got up early and tore signatures to make some journals for etsy, then got distracted by the interent and decided to go run a few errands (to the handweavers guild to get applications).

By the time I got home I had a new romance novel and was in need of a nap! So I further procrastinated, read, had a nap and then took a few photos of my pottery after a few freinds aske to see it.

If you go to my flickr you will not only see my pottery, but my new loom as well!

Well it’s late-ish and I have a few pages of that book to finish so i bid you all goodnight!
