I am a weekly winner!

I didn’t know if I really had a shot- my style (realism) is pretty far removed from what Rogue uses on their cans and merchandise (think more comic book meets street art-very cool graphic design, not usually too based in reality. I’ve got a lot of their clothes…) I wanted to stay true to my style and try my hand at what I could do with a Dead Guy..

Crystal Springs is a fantastic garden in Portland. It is full of rhododendrons, azaleas, ducks, geese, trees, ponds, various other flowers.

Yesterday was perfect weather to be biking so we loaded up our bikes and headed to the Gorge.

I have so many new pieces I have been working on with Cory doing the woodwork that before one is finished I am on to the next…

Instead of making an ordinary cowl where it is essentially a tube you pull over your head, I wanted to make more of a statement piece…

We hiked the same trail Sunday as we did two weeks ago and had vastly different views and weathers…

Downtown Poulsbo is a small town full of Viking flair. We really liked this mural and walking along the water. Their Saturday Art walk was a lot of fun and I’d recommend it if you are in the area!

My husband loves lavender. The scent is one of his favorites and so going to lavender farms doesn’t take much convincing. There are many within about an hour or so of us so we have gone to a few. They all have lavender for sale and offer different lavender scented or lavender flavored things.
