So I got the tests back on my little dog. She has an infection somewhere in her body and her thyroid numbers were so low they did not even register. So she is on pain meds anti-biotics and thyroid meds. We are hoping she will be spry and healthy soon. In the meantime I have started 4 new projects.they all kind of share a theme that kind of streams through each of them. I am enjoying these projects as they are kind of light hearted but as with most things there is a darker side and my challenge at times seems to be to not make the dark side to dark. My life is a little like that as is most people's lives. I am working on an altered book based loosely on fairy tales, two pieces with birds and one a butterfly. The following are some pictures of the works in progress. I am thinking that the two sconces will be made into small lamps that get hung on the wall possibly as night lights. I don't usually do altered books. The last one I did was based on my idea of who God is. It sold very quickly but it required enough introspection that it has taken quite a while to get up the gumption to start another one. This one is based on a fairy tale life....and all that implies.
