Abstract Untitled |
The wood card table will be used for puzzles, and odd projects like a place to allow things to dry.
During the furniture moving, there's also clearing out stuff. The tall trash can where I stored rolled up drawings, wallpaper and such is now a clothes hamper. A file cabinet is in the corner instead. More has moved here and there to organize, tidy up, declutter. I've also found small projects to add to the cold weather indoors project basket.
The abstract is one such discovery rolled in a tube with other stuff. I recall it as being on gesso primed paper. To my surprise, it is on primed canvas without a stretcher.
Who know moving furniture could be so much fun.
I found a 1982 duck applique and stuffed decoy book with the pattern; a cross stitch door pull kit; wood pieces for projects; tons of buttons; a knitting project; drawing paper; and more.
So that's where that was!...ruled.

Creeping Smartweed (Persicaria longiseta) |
Big landscapes leave out the small things we are closer to. The amount of feeling we have for the outdoors, the large and small views, I feel, doesn't differ widely. I believe our need to connect to Nature is one size fits it all.
Have a naturally wondrous weekend!

Wooly Bear Caterpillar 2014 |
According to folklore, the longer the brown band on the Wooly Bear caterpillar, the milder the winter. In 2014, the band was long, visible as he scurried stretched out across the driveway.
North American Winter 2014~2015
Maybe the Wooly Bear isn't such a good weather predicter.

I frequently put down on blank notebook paper random subjects to write about, explore, ponder. With a whiff of autumn in the air, new ideas should easily flow. They are not.
An area of study is up front, though, Science. What about science I have yet to discover why it is on my mind. Thus, I've decided to re-read a favorite book by Hans C. Von Baeyer, Rainbows, Snowflakes and Quarks: Physics and the World Around Us, 1984, that I first read well over 20 years ago.
Books I re-read provide a unique experience to explore where my mind has been. Like visiting an old friend, they will give me a life on refresh moment.
Are there books you want to re-read?

The last week of August was slow with a few nice weather days. Not summery, but when the sun is out, I feel grateful.
