Something I love about Seattle: Leaving a meeting in an unfamiliar neighborhood (Alki) at sunset and finding yourself on the ocean front...

You should have seen my face when I found this old copy of The Wind in the Willows! I love the way the illustrations are smattered throughout the pages. So much life in this story and so many memories of the book and the old TV series with stop motion puppets that came out when I was little.

Some "lately" stuff...

Loving, as always, the Camilla Engman calendar. Thanks Anni!

I fell in love with these drawings last week. They are done by my mom's 5th graders. (Hi Mom!)

Was it Picasso who said that he tried his whole life to draw like a child? Well anyway, Amen. To be that free and creative.
