One Frosty morning: the amazing beauty found in a simple frost

Sometimes it's the simple things which excite and amaze. Something as everyday as a frost can give one such wonderful ideas that you are filled with excitement for the day. Frost creates some many amazing textures...

Like a soft fuzzy coat everything was covered in one way or another.  Once again in the dawn I am a child smiling and happy that a new day has found me alive and well enough to enjoy the frosty light and the quiet that seems to have fallen, muffling the sounds of busy life. A frosty quilted blanket of joy and beauty.

May 20th Light

This picture is a picture about light in so many ways.
If I had not met my husband...
moved to Wales...
I never would had found Tintern Abbey...
in the beautiful Wye Valley...
(where the light always seems to bend a certain way and seems to caress the cheek...)
I also never would have had that dancer of light and laughter...
And then there is the glorious sun, again, pouring across time and space...
This picture is the essence of light for me; it fills me with a glowing that brims and overflows.


Please feel free to pop over to LoomyBin and have a look at the weaving I also do.

May 11th Smile -youth recaptured

Thing1 coloring. Left, a portrait of me smiling. Middle and Right, the drawing being done.

I always enjoy when the kids color. They usually do some coloring while I'm weaving (I can supervise the proceedings from where I sit) Whenever the crayons come out it reminds me of when I was a child. I quite often end up having to pick up a crayon and recapture a bit of my youth.

Thing2 coloring. It is a Puppy and a Cat.
