this morning we awoke to heavy wet snow on the ground and in the air. the combination of a snowy morning and a busy night last night has made me a bit lazy and slow this morning.
i took a few photos last night, but i don't ever remember my camera until the signs are in and night surrounds us and the light is weak. so the pictures aren't lit very well, but they give you a glimpse. the tunics hanging with tracy's encaustic on salvaged board. the cotton vessels i'm obsessed with. and pendants draped over the loveliest piece of hollow tree that fell earlier in the winter and we brought into the shop. linen table runners and matching napkins infused with french sensibilities. and there is so much more upstairs. i didn't get up there with my camera, but you would have seen many more of tracy's beautiful and dreamy encaustic paintings, lovingly arranged under the sloping ceilings. i'll get them for next time.
we met some lovely people last night, people who braved a cold and snowy night to share our little evening. we appreciate them and hope to see them again. i feel really fortunate to be able to spend my time in such a rewarding and satisfying way, doing what i love doing.
