Just doodling a few ideas. Thoughts randomly flitting around inside my head and heart. Changes coming, I feel it, new thoughts and ideas. Perhaps even a few old ones, resurrected in a different form?
I’m being drawn for some reason – toward
the old and the simple and the plain and the quietness of white and off-white
and tea dyed luxuries and hanging vintage. Soft pinks and blues and aquas – all
either stained or muted with off white
The shelves are filled to the brim with several
communities of dolls. Sitting here
smiling at me – thanking me for their stories.
And so I think that whatever is coming must
hang on the wall – or from a dowel – or on a hanger of sorts – for there is no
more room in the cubbies nor in the shelter of shelves.
Hmmm will these thoughts become
something? Or even some things? Who knows – but for now I’ll just let them
gather slowly…

Hello! I love your photos-and your dolls-can't wait to see what you are going to do next....to answer your question about the pink bird pattern-I developed it for an online instructional site I belong to, and even though I am not teaching there this year, I hope to have the class next year, so the bird pattern will be part of that class.
ReplyDeleteI always love your visits to my blog!
Thanks Debra -- I'd love to make a few of your birdies to sit around the house.
ReplyDeleteMy grandfather used to say, "Slowly, slowly, catchee monkee". I was never sure quite what he meant, but maybe "Let the ideas gather" might work as a transliteration in this case?
ReplyDeleteAh, I know this Penny restlessness and it always results in something awesome. I'll be watching!
ReplyDeleteI felt the earth shake a little just now. Something wonderful is a brewin'!!

Those soft vintage colours are gorgeous. Such a fertile ground for the imagination.
ReplyDeleteAlong with everyone else, I'm eager to see what new journeys await you!
ReplyDeleteAh yes, time for a change. It seems time for a softening of winter, and your soft colors feel so good. I can hardly wait to see what comes out of your head next!
