Since returning home from the beautiful MacFarlane Studio in Friday Harbor, I have been working in the home studio carving text. I am pacing myself to keep my hand from getting hurt, but now I’m heading for the home stretch. The first block is done (except for some tweaking) and the second block is nearly finished. I spent many hours carving over the weekend and I try to carve at least one word per night. I hope to be done next weekend!

I also have an artist book in the Boston Printmakers Biennial at Wellesley College. It’s in the same building where I took piano lessons when I was in grade school! I have so many memories of Wellesley College, my sister’s wedding, fishing in Paint Shop Pond, and swimming in Lake Waban. How strange it will be to go there again after many years!  I had a lot of fun stitching in this artist book, Integumentary. Please come by on the 8th if you’re nearby!
