A LOVELY FABRIC PATTERN I CREATED WITH ADOBE



This sweet fabric pattern is one I created and printed via  Spoonflower!
It is a wonderful combination of 1940w and 1950s tones and shapes. I added other patterns such as checks and stripes in same color schemes but haven't uploaded them for printing yet. I plan on creating some children's clothes with the fabric set.
Do you Spoonflower?

COSTUME AND REAL GEMSTONE JEWELRY PLAY WELL TOGETHER


One of these things is not like the others. I remember that little ditty on Sesame Street or maybe the Electric Company show from when I was a child. Here are two costume jewelry pieces and two genuine gemstone pieces. I enjoy mixing past and present for my own individual look and style. Do you enjoy mixing and matching looks, styles and decades too?

CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS ARE TOUGH

A LEARNING PROCESS

When each day begins, I want to also begin or at least continue a new learning process. I do my best to find concepts that allow me to integrate my needs, wants and desires to be creative and earn a living!
What new old process shall I begin or get better at today?
It is my Mamiya RB67 Pro SD. I love the beasty weight. I look at the film with remembrance of darkroom experiments and the elation I felt when I processed a batch of film to my perfection! The days of my own dark room are long gone with the chemicals and enlarger but the thrill still burns bright in my heart! This shall be my process to day.
Thanks for stopping by and please come again!
