• ~Rough Design Sketch~

  The next step will be to add the color…fabrics, paint, etc. ~which are leaning in the aqua blue and butter gold family. I am going to use colored pencils in my hand sketch. If it is acceptable, then I will move on to my computer aided drawing tablet and begin the real life rendering. What do you think? From traditional to contemporary… Design takes many paths… Which path is your home on? Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• Think ~ A ~Thought ~ Thursday

  Rules of Play: (1) I (The Muse) offer my first reader a set of words. (2) The first blog reader must take those words and use them to make a coherent sentence.

Posting it in the comment box (3) Then they must GIVE another word, whose letter starts with the last letter of the previous word…. Shall we play? The word which I gift to thee is: amalgamated (so the very next reader, should use the word amalgamated in a sentence…and then offer up a NEW word, [...]

• ~The Cycle Begins~

  Farming begins with the love of the land… The use of the land is determined by topography. Trees are cherished and where there is new construction, there will soon be grass and landscaping. The wildlife will thrive with the addition of hearty vegetation.  Birdhouses and other sanctuaries will be added, to aid the creatures, great and small. This is a small cycle of our farm, the actual metamorphosis…continues…as new life is constantly being added.  The birds are cared for constantly [...]
