I cheated and asked my daughter to take a photo of me. I couldn't quite manage it myself and my hands were dirty. Here I am at a makeshift spot at the kitchen table doing what I feel most comfortable doing - making.
Making what? Plant markers out of clay while the dinner was simmering.
More self portraits here
Your corner view is wonderful and so are your plant markers! :)

What great use of clay... I wonder if I can add that to the mix of mixed media?
A few comments of the last few posts were not transferred by the import tool - yours was one of them...

great plant markers and they are from clay? i guess you do them in the oven or they get hard of them self?
any way it is nice to have something you have create yourself to do that in your garden!

What a lovely photograph. And what a creative soul you are! I love that you find time to make things while the dinner is simmering. I always fantasise about being able to do that but it is only very rarely I seem to manage to do it. And when I do - the dinner often ends up a wee bit burnt!!

You are very focused. Your daughter has made a beautiful portrait.
I really like your new header again very much. Great as the water sparkles and the horse standing in water.
