Winging back from a workshop


Wow! Did we have GREAT weather for the Monte Vista Crane Festival, or what? Sure, some stout wind from time to time, but the skies were clear and temps moderate and the sandhill cranes completely cooperative. Saturday morning's sketching class was great fun, full of enthusiastic participants whose names all ended in "eeee". Almost. Once we declared Tina's new moniker to be "Teenie," she joined the ranks of Sherrie, Kathy, Nancy, Bonnie, Lindy, Peggy, and Colby. Thank you all for a great morning.

As with photos of autumn aspen trees, I have to wonder how many pictures of gray birds in yellow grass against blue sky I really need. But I keep taking them, anyway.




Tomorrow it's back to work, and carving on the linocut already in progress.

  2. WOW. Jealous! How stunning. I never get to do stuff like that for work! Can't blame you for taking more and more and more snaps of a scene like that one.

 It can't be avoided anymore. It's time to address the details of this bird.  As many have figured out from the bird's silhouett...
