Abstraction and Imagination

I painted on one of the saw horses on the shop the other day just to get paint out of the brush before washing it up. Today it took on a different look for me. I see faces everywhere!

New Apple Blossoms, Fish Eye Lens, and David Finishing Boat

So the title of this blog seems to be pretty busy, and it is. I glimpsed the blossoms in the apple tree out front from the living room window, then realized that last year a late frost took all the blossoms on the tree and so there were no apples, not a one. It was with some appreciation that I took these photos this afternoon, and then switched to the fish-eye lens on my phone and took a couple more (that I felt like posting).

David and I worked a big part of the day yesterday sanding and taping off the trim (brightwork) on his sailboat. He got home early today and put on a second coat and it looks stunning!

Some random photos from the front yard as the sun was setting... this year's blackberries.
