Bunny Goode - BIG Idea Studio



Last week I went to check out Bunny Goode's new art studio. "BIG Idea Studio". It is a fantastic set up, large space and good lighting. Her studio is at the Monmouth County Airport and while you are taking a class you have a wonderful view of airplanes as they are landing or taking off.
I wish her the best of luck in her new enterprise . If you have any questions for Bunny her web-page is on my favorites list .

Dragon Rider




The doll club that I am a member, "Garden State Doll Artisans" meets once a month in the Public Library in Neptune N.J. We decided that we would pick a children book and make a soft sculpture illustration that the
library could put on display in November . I picked Cornella Funke's book "Dragon Rider" , since I enjoy the idea of dragons flying around . So here is my interpretation of the book cover.

A visit from Mo'a Romig-Boyles

Last Friday I had a very lovely visit from Mo'a Romig-Boyles. She is a wonderful accomplished painter, sculpture, fiber artist and much more. At this time she is enjoying photography, if interested you can visit her blog and take a look at her work. I have her on my fav.list. She very generously gave me this beautiful handmade doll. We talked about our love of grandchildren, gardening and art. It was a very enjoyable afternoon. The only downside to the visit was I forgot to take pictures, how silly was that!!

A perfect summer Sunday



Water Play



Hide and Seek


Air Show and Lunch



Relaxing and reading.









If you look closely you will see the weeds,oh yes, they are getting ahead of me by the minute. Don't know what has changed , I used to be on top of the weeding , the pruning , the dividing off the Day Lilly's , what has happened?? Could it be that I am not as young as I think? Oh well, we do the best that we can. So here is the garden, weeds and all on a very perfect summer day, with our daugther Rebecca and her two children Kayla and Ben , my husband Michael and Lucy the dog.
