Crystal Love Sex Magic

In keeping with the theme of the last few posts, I just have to reveal a set of photos that were taken last spring.  There are similarities to the published shoot “The Master” which were totally coincidental but I love stuff like that.  The photographer is one of the best,

Autumn Bliss

It has been awhile since I last posted.  I have been working on my new collection and new textile designs lately, plus my garage at home needed a new roof and being the do it yourself type my husband and I plus family, took on that project.  Just in time

Natures Oven

It seems that every year about this time heat waves across the country.  Most people run inside and hide in an air-conditioned room or go to the beach and soak the sun for its vital vitamin D.  I take this time each year to compost as much as I can

Launch Pad

Rusted Cathedral

In Seaside Oregon lies a beautiful treasure beached in the sand like the bones of a sacred space.  I am speaking of the Peter Iredale shipwreck of 1906. I have lived in the Northwest my whole life and never until now seen this awe inspiring site.  Ever since I heard

Native grounds

This was the final stop of our road trip.  We found this native fishing site that was slowly decomposing over the years but you could still see how the structures could have been used by the natives that came to fish.  What a beautiful thing to find. The photos of
