corner view ≈ countdown

why, yes! we're counting down to september, of course, the fairest month of all, in my opinion. my countdown to september starts in july. and with this morning's cleansing chill around the house, i can but say, september, bring it on!

in a broader sense we're gently counting down to christmas, too. that countdown usually kicks off in june, when i realize another calender year is halfway through.
·
last but not least, we're counting down the the two sisi's adventure. did i tell this would start soon?

how about your own countdowns? jane's corner view, francesca's hosting, nicki's theme.

drawing | circus

i didn't know about arnold circus until last night. i ran an old taped program on london streets, and there it popped up, in all its round square gorgeousness. tucked away in the east shoreditch area, it is a magical neighbourhood, where sustainability becomes tangible, in its small townish, old time feel, filled in by a contemporary mob. when next in london ...

... for now, different circus acts, over at helen's. tinyWOOLF must rest now. all this stretching!☻

corner view ≈ emotion

swamped with it, to be honest. trying to keep a view on the wood for the trees. which might be the wrong quote, but you catch my drift?

bell an i are planning an original woolfenbell project. i will be sharing its development over the next coming months.

neither bell nor i know exactement where this thing will lead us. all we do know is, a vintage queen or two will be involved, and the enterprise will be full emotional, from imminent beginning down to the crucial end.

drawing | playing {a wild} card

as a youngster, i hated playing card games. i feared the competition involved, which i still do. my love for playing cards design has only grown though, a longing easily redeemed in any likely thrift shop. i let myself get inspired by beautiful deck backs. what a challenge to translate its shape and design into my drawing book! as i was looking for meditation, i truely found me some. ariane sure has us all sit around the table, playing alice of sorts. luckily this game i love playing with you all. ♦

contained

had i better not laid my lenses in their tiny cases, instead this prickly cornflower?

♥ albeit there's a reason for her short clipping. i tore the flower from the ditch the other day when i was feeling blue, and let her slip inside a tall glass. she was happy. i took some beauty shots of her, and by mistake then threw the glass over the table. the flower got her stem crushed under the heavy glass. i had to trim off her limb. i've felt both saddened and heartened by her presence, for she came into my life at a moment of doubt, and now she symbolizes change. accidents will happen, but we do go on. ♥
