					<description><![CDATA[The Banana plant is loving the hot tropical weather we&#8217;ve been having. Hi Friends, I&#8217;m at the tail end of my house renovation, and this is the most difficult part &#8212; the kitchen. I saved it for last, because I was dreading being without a kitchen for two months. I&#8217;m two weeks into it, and...]]></description>

Hi Friends, In my last newsletter I talked about finding my artistic style, which I described as Zen minimalism with subdued colors and natural materials. And I was totally committed to it, until . . . The September issue of Vogue Magazine arrived. The September issue is...]]></description>

The room is big for a bathroom, and with all of the hard surfaces, it&#8217;s very echo-y. I decided to soften the sound and the look of it with art. I tried some...]]></description>

Hi Friends, I&#8217;ve been invited to show my handwoven scarves at The Ebell of Los Angeles holiday boutique in December again this year. Which means I have to get started on weaving now!

Hello Friends, I received a request for woven wall art, which I haven&#8217;t done before, mostly because I&#8217;ve never figured out what I want to do with it. No time like the present!

I&#8217;ve been burning holes in paper, which doesn&#8217;t sound too exciting, until you see some of the results. I use medical exam paper, which is transparent like tissue paper, but stronger.
