My Monday sketchbook collages continue but with a twist this year. I wanted to do something a little different this year so I've decided to use a concertina format. I made one strip of paper for each month and each strip has either 4 or 5 panels depending on how many Mondays are in the month. Each of the panels is 5" x 5". As I work I'll let papers hang over the edge to the next panel and leave the option of integrating them into the adjacent collage the following week. I'll be pondering how I want to bind the strips into a book at the end of the year.  Week 2  Week 3  Week 4  Week 5

Since my outdoor garden will be sleeping for several more months I look to my indoor garden for some needed color. Each year I buy at least one amaryllis bulb. So easy to grow and they only require a little indirect light and a little water every once in a while.  The stages of growth are beautiful and amazing. Watching the stalk lengthen by what must be inches per day and then the bud easing into a fully blooming flower just never gets old.
Did you happen to see the amaryllis bulbs that were dipped in wax in the stores this year? I got one as a gift and talk about easy. No water required, just put it near a window and watch it do its thing. |
