the sketchbook project




It's my submission for the 2011 Sketchbook Project, off to Brooklyn to rub shoulders with 10,000 other sketchbooks on the shelves of the Brooklyn Art Library....my theme..."a path through the trees", a small visual tale about coming full circle and coming home...a day remembered just so.....


there are words woven between the pages also and they go; a path through the trees is a path home.....
circles of vintage linen

cat bird green and screaming
the white songs of winter winds
piercing holes of light in a black southern sky
wild raspberries in summer, small and red
autumn figs, sticky and sweet
hot thunder crack the wet begins
children quiet drawing at dawn
copper curls and stamping no's
teasing husband, wicked grin
mud on cheeks blue eyes smile
black dog silent
folding paper in a studio white
green chilli chutney and light blue cups of sweet tea
first light mountain and five souls home
