Once Again: Another Studio Day! (Life’s Little Miracles.)
I carved into my hydra drawing! This could be a print one day. But it is a sculpture always! BACK, in progress.

Lucious, leaping, lapin á la moutarde
“What the heck is that?” the un-Frankophonetic of you may be asking. Rabbit in mustard sauce is the short answer. That’s right, this meal features fuzzy forest friends! Now typically I’m not big on farm raised game, but I’m pretty sure this critter was shot locally (not much consolation for you vegetarians out there). We […]

Blood Bank Recovery Feast
As you may know, Blake and I are Blood Bank Junkies. We donate as often as possible. For me, that’s about 3 times a year because I give whole blood (which has a longer wait period in between,) and I often have low iron, which delays my donation time. Blake, however, gives platelets almost every […]
