This piece and Catherine Nash's piece were the exhibit "High Fiber" at Conrad Wilde Gallery in Tucson, Arizona, USA in the summer of 2009.

Sometimes I can't express what I'm feeling about certain pieces and that hits the nail on the head.<br /><br />Donna, that is my problem too. I love too many things and since I don't have enough hours in the day to experiment with them all I blog about them instead and it calms my racing heart.<br /><br />Paula, always a pleasure :-)<br /><br />Renee, that sounds wonderful! <br />A 21st century art library.<br /><br />Thanks Karine. I have made paper but I didn't have time to savour the moment with all the other things on the go. I'd love to do it again at a workshop.<br /><br />Seth, yes I love the "power of absence" quote.

I guess it doesn't matter where you live - these things can happen. I was alone and awake past midnight one night in Tucson, and watched as a man walked straight up my darkened bedroom window, as I stood in the living room. He didn't see me, but I did see him and called the police. Moments later a helicopter was shining it's light down into our yard... these are such unnerving experiences. I am so glad to hear of the capture of those recent domestic terrorists, because that's what they are. I think it wise to take all necessary precautions to be able to feel peace in one's own home. I am placing you and your family in a place of protection in my mind's eye and heart.<br />xox KKarin Bartimolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490920503677450338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290332160821152086.post-49961618247825993402009-12-10T14:52:45.810-08:002009-12-10T14:52:45.810-08:00Love this post...always been a lover of paper!
