Photo Inspiration

This week I've been playing at setting up still life arrangements to photograph and paint from. I came across Paul Cary Goldberg's photos here and here. Very inspiring. Partly of course I am inspired to just give up camera use in general, but in a good way. -Polly

Its summertime, and the living is a little messy. There are toys and muddy footprints where I don't want them. Sand and food remnants where they do not belong. Having two (three counting the tall one) boys here to create these cleaning projects is wonderful though, and so sometimes are the little things I find left behind at the end of a busy messy day. -Polly

The Zoo

We enjoyed a basic visit to the zoo. Mostly it made us smile. -Polly

Summer So Far

Mostly this is what we have been doing. Being outside, trying to find shade, two boys always one or two steps ahead of me. Good so far. -Polly
