I am a little late in getting this post together, but here is Iceland from my visit in late July. xo

Mucking our way through these summer days...lucky enough to get away to California this month. School starts in a couple of weeks and then I'll be back to work in my studio. Cannot wait.
Come see me and the ladies of MAST at the MAST Boutique on Sunday, July 27th, for a Meet the Maker event to celebrate the Streetcar Opening. Hope to see you there!

Quoting..."The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new."
Keeping...this quote written on a piece of paper in my pocket these days. Setting new goals, trying not to look back, (looking forward with determination and faith), one day at a time.
Listening to...Jason Isbell / Southeastern (album) + Sturgill Simpson / Some Days (track)
Sketching...with Lyra pencils (my favorite) from Sarnoff
Cooking...black beans and rice / bacon (always) / banana bread
Road tripping......with Clementine to Flagstaff, AZ
Enjoying local...Aqua Vita water, the neighborhood pool, downtown Tucson, and hanging in the backyard when the sun goes down.

October is my favorite month of the year in Tucson; the worst of the heat has definitely passed, the city is buzzing again and it is time to organize what I have been making all summer, and get ready for the busy selling season. I managed to get quite a bit done this summer. And a new BIG project is now parked in my backyard...an adorable food truck we picked up for my sister that we are slowly fixing up.
Fall in Tucson...time to come out of hibernation and remember why we live here. xo
