A December Sketchbook Page

"I knew a girl who tried to walk across the lake
Course it was winter when all this was ice
They say the lake is as big as the ocean
I wonder if she knew about it?" (yoko ono)

A Blue Sky, White Clouds...

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child-- our own two eyes. All is a miracle. (Thich Nhat Hanh)

Marshlands Nature Walk

This design always reminds me of a certain place along the trail in Seattle's Arboretum. As you cross the footbridge between Foster Island and Marsh Island, you can always see ducks, sometimes cattails and dragonflies, and in mid-summer, water lilies. And now this scene is available on fabric. And not just any fabric-- it's "Snuggle Flannel!" Check it out here

2010 Is Just Around The Corner

...and our brand new 2010 Sentiments calendar is now available here.

Perception

This little illustration is based on a sketchbook drawing. The idea for the design came from the notion that the range of things one sees, the details of the day, depend little on what actually exists. Reality is fluid. Perception is mostly a matter of standing in one particular place instead of another.

Early Autumn

Right now? Is this the time? Little tentative leaves eye each other for cues. Catching glimpses of hesitant gold and crackling amber along curly, newly-brittle edges. How will we know for sure? Each of us feeling so hopeful, evergreen.

Back To School

All children are artists -- the problem is how to remain an artist as one grows up. (Picasso)
