Tiles,Tiles Tiles






I love what can be done with tiles. They can withstand heat and cold and get wet. They are the perfect medium for functional art. I also love adding the 3D element to make tiles even more fun. So here are some examples of various projects I have worked on. They come round, square, rectangle and can be cut or molded into any shape.

It's what we do that matters

CS Lewis once said," 
What we practise, not (save at rare intervals) what we preach, is usually our contribution to the conversion of others."
 What a great reminder of the hindrance we can be to others by saying one thing and acting another way.

Puppet Loving

My youngest sister Nancy and I were talking about how much people of all ages love puppets. She would know as she worked for years for Jim Henson. Tonight she sent me a link to a video she worked on in those years. It's on You Tube now and has had over a million and a half views!! So here's to spring break whether you get one or not, watch the muppets and pretend you are away at Kokomo!!

Right Out of a Storybook

Look at these darling photos that I received yesterday. This is Evie one of my little friends and the best one year old model I could ever dream of!! I think her mom might have a new career as a photographer!!

A Quote on Eating

The season of Lent is fast upon us. A time of giving up something for 40 days until Easter. Some kind of food is usually first on people's minds. Anyway, I saw this quote at a local eatery called Hubble and Hudson. Thought you might enjoy it as well.
