Seed pods!! I love seed pods.... these are from a vine, not sure what the name is ....

Gulf Fritillary caterpillar starting to go through 
metamorphosis !! 
I went back a few days later,
 but it was no longer there.... maybe eaten? 
Or dropped into the high weeds?

Road Trip!!!!

Built a sleeping platform in

the back of my Honda CRV
-- so K. and I can go camping...
Lots of space underneath....

Planked

I'm not sure why I feel compelled to make stuff from bits of old reclaimed wood, paint, fabric, and rusty metal..... here is the latest.....wish the lighting was better

quick pastel on throwaway cardboard!!!

quick pastel study on a piece of cardstock..... hard to blend..... but basics are there....

two great rides on Fancy....she can be such a brat....Simple serpentines, making  round half circles and switching back,  really gets her mad for some reason!   She'll do a few then decide she's DONE and pins those fine ears, swishes her tail, plants her feet.....I just squeeze tight and start scolding her....she starts moving again.....she's getting more consistent and we're trying a few trotting circles now.... still just bareback and leadropes. I'm amazed at how responsive she is with just that....

vintage wood

vintage reclaimed wood

 

made from logs which have been reclaimed from Florida's underwater riverways or old barns and houses which are falling down

and been re-purposed into beautiful flooring and other architectural pieces for homes across America

 

The other waste parts and scraps are useful for art and craft projects...

these beautiful bits of historic wood have paint and scars, nail holes, insect or bird borings and other evidence of having a previous life which once was a source of pride and beauty for a long gone human connection........
