OK, 2015, here’s my resolution: focus on what is good. And there’s a lot. Plenty.
For instance, this most wonderful painting. Weird and beautiful and ordinary and extraordinary. An angel, walking, carrying a fish.
It’s the archangel Raphael, protector of travelers. The supreme healer in the angelic realm.
Painted in Peru sometime around 1700, in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum of Art.
Or how about the January sky? Cold, blue, through the bare trees.
A closer shot, it’s sunlight shinning through the bark of my paper bark maple trees.
Citrus! All you can eat, so many varieties! So sweet.
A pinch pot, made by my friend Becky, sitting on my table, looking humble and perfect all at once.
This tiny, [2 3/4 inch] print of scissors. Beautiful. By Sonia Romero.
[ok, one other resolution, get this framed]
One of my favorite websites, Not Ordinary Fashion. I get lost here.
Pod casts! Yes! I listen while I sew.
You’ve heard of Serial, yes? So good. Or how about Gimlet’s two [so far], Start Up and Reply All.
My kimono silks, pure inspiration. Absolutely gorgeous. Each one so beautiful.
I have more than enough, but cannot resist, they are my addiction.
