Flowers and Snow




I've done a couple more intricate flowers on my pharmacy ledger, gelli plated, plastered pages.  I'm really enjoying these right now, and anything that keeps me in the studio (or on the couch with pen in hand) I'll stick with for a while.  They take many hours, but they're very satisfying too



I combined these two with the one from my last post, and made a wall hanging from them - I sense more of these in my future.  I may have to dust the cobwebs off of my etsy store.

 So, for the snow.  We had a freakish storm here Friday, that left the mountains covered in snow.  We had an overnight stay in Lake Tahoe already planned, and we headed up Saturday in bright sun and got to see lots of beautiful snow.   Really lucky timing and a rare treat for us since we aren't usually willing to fight all the skiers that are usually on the road when there's snow.


Mario's new buddy....


The waterfalls in the area are bursting right now
