pause.

mizzonk "where are you?"

A member of my close circle of friends died suddenly last week. Consequently, there hasn't been much in the way of crafting, knitting, or preparation for Christmas. We are slowly getting back into things (what choice do we have? It's December; how did that happen?), but for the next little while things might be a little slow on the crafting/printmaking front. I need to wait until the idea of proclaiming joy stops feeling like a sick joke.

We went to the One of a Kind Show on Monday — that always meant, to me, the start of the Christmas season. We bought less than I ever remembering buying: just some food (albeit amazingly nummy food), a small piece of pottery, a vase for a friend, a pair of utterly cunning little overshoes for my nephew, and the artwork above. It's from one of my favourite studios, Mizzonk Workshop, part of their inspiration series, and I just love it. The large-scale version of this piece is spectacular.
