People are suffering with this spring tease, but, I love the slow, cold melt. I have new warps on my looms, and fresh yarn supplies. Spring peepers, the small frogs with the shrill high pitched call, have sounded from the river, Breed! Breed! Breed! The poor, hen turkey is still hanging around my yard during the day, with no turkey-guy in sight. Raccoons squabble at night at the compost heap, and wild coyote whooping seems to surround me in the dark, as I hurry back to the house from the shop late at night. I'm not actually afraid, but a little.
Amy Arnold and Kelsey Sauber Olds' spring show is here, just around the corner in my workshop. A rare treat to have this work to look at (until May 11) the wood figures seem to catch the buzz of all this sexy, and earthy restlessness. I love the soft colors on wood, and the mysterious thoughts these carved beings seem to be keeping to themselves, as if, just when I enter the room, they all stopped talking.
