New year. Renewed energy. Picking up the threads of creation. After I pack away the Christmas lovely clutter, my studio can once again become making-in-motion. I have three areas of activity to return to (good thing I have lots of tables!). One is what I am calling “Following the Thread” series, with collage, watercolor and gouache on paper – using my mother’s saved receipts of a life — mortgages, bills, statements as an underpinning. So much between the lines that I am painting upon. I am painting from scenes from my volumes of travel sketchbooks, with their preponderance of mountains and waterways. New year, let’s see where creation leads! Back to the garden, yes. The garden of creation.
