birthday...





Last year on Jan.10, my family came for a get together to mark the birthday. This year the same ritual is actually on my birthday, today. So I'm posting the 9th and the 10th today.

On the 9th 2009, I went out to dinner for lobster with my husband, Roger, and my very good friend, Ila. The art work is the meager attempt to capture the lovely full moon rising over the ocean at Wallis Sands. I kept it simple; colored pencil sky, and ocean with a white stencilled moon and reflection. The silver stars are punched out of some paper that is brown on one side and silver on the other. A few detail lines are made with gel pens.

The moon stencil was the first of many special stencils/stamps that I made for this work.
