I've been taking an Iphoneography Class with Susan

Tuttle and can I just say that I'm absolutely twitterpated

by the idea of being able to shoot and edit pictures anywhere

that I happen to be. I've always carried around my Canon but

it can be cumbersome and to be able to carry an iPhone in my

pocket….well that's so much easier. I'm in app heaven at the

moment….love all the apps that I bought for this class. If you

are interested in seeing my work progress you can follow me

getting the fever while running a fever

it sure seems like a lot of folks are getting the fever to get out and start gardening. i keep hearing from others......like myself......that are drooling over the new seed catalogs. there's a giveawy on art by naomi who says she's craving a little green and wanting some spring. I hear ya girl.

i'm still VERY crippled with this broken foot. it's really been a hurtful thing. the break is in the joint between the big toe and the bone behind it. i'm having photo shooting withdrawal symptoms......can't go junkin..........by the time i get home from work (thankfully i'm on desk duty!) my foot's hurting so bad i'm in a fog and can't even enjoy reading everyone's blogs. i know......want a little cheese with that whine? sorry.

i hope i'll be able to work in my woodworking shop this weekend. i've got some great ideas for some crucifixs made with found objects that i can't wait to get started on. i've also ordered susan tuttle's new book....exhibition 36 mixed media demonstrations and explorations....and i'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will arrive tomorrow. i am soooooo book and magazine poor....but i wouldn't have it any other way. for those of us who don't have a loaf of bread, a jug of wine, and you beside me.......a good read and a great cuppa joe is a pretty good tradeoff.
