Sorry to hear about the hard things this summer. <br /><br />Your shells are beautiful and I'm sure they will be a top seller in any venue you have them. Each is a precious gem.<br /><br />Thought of you when we circumnavigated Harstine Island earlier this month. We anchored for the night near McMicken Island. We never came on to the island, though, or I would have contacted you. Beautiful place! I can understand why you love living there. All the best!

The only problem I run into is that I might plan on spending only 10-15 minutes on some sketches and end up spending an hour or more. Now, there's nothing wrong with spending an hour or more on drawing, but these aren't supposed to be finished pieces of art, worthy of hanging on the wall. Like that apple I drew the other day. Supposed to be a five to ten minutes sketch and an hour later I had a completed drawing.<br /><br />Oh the life of an artist. I just don't know when to put down the brushes and pencils. ;)<br /><br />Love your clothes pins by the way.Dave Caseyhttp://www.thedailypainter.comnoreply@blogger.com
