Carolyn's Show!

I finally made it to Carolyn's show at Highline. I just love her line quality and the strange scary dark she gets. I remember way back in the dark ages when I was learning to draw, I was struggling with something, suddenly the thought came to me, "Carolyn wouldn't be afraid of doing this". It was really a breakthrough for me, to understand the difference between being inspired by someone vs. copying their moves. Thanks Carolyn!

Highline doesn't have Carolyns work up yet on their gallery page, but they do have a webcam! Until the show is taken down, you can look at it that way.

Here are a few of my favorites:

The Garden and some cats

Here are some pictures of my garden, with some cats thrown in for good measure.


here is some astilbe



This lime green bleeding heart is called "Grandma on LSD" The name alone is great, but the lime foliage and pink flowers (not shown in photo) are really great. the purply things are oxalis.



Scott took out the fireplace, and has stacked the bricks in the NE corner of the garden. I think they look like a sculpture. We are going to make a patio with them, maybe.



This, believe it or not is an allum. Scott got me all these cool allum varieties for my birthday last fall. This is my favorite.



Binkie used to be too afraid to go outside, but then Mary the Cat Psychic told her it was ok. Now she naps on the walk in front of the kitchen garden.
