Crazy Bird

                                                  Yesterday I felt a bit like this....
                                                  It must be the influence of a bird I keep hearing sing
                                                  its most beautiful clear whistle tune at 4:30 am inside my pillow.
                                                  Who knew there were such crazy birds singing in Brooklyn?

Love it!



www.monstrum.dk  One of my not so secret dreams is to build a playground sculpture. These guys are AMAZING. Who wouldn't want to climb and play and imagine all day in one of their structures. I think I may hire them to build me a house head in a tree over swirling rivers with floating window castle slides into open frog mouths. woohoo. LOVE IT, check them out.

Thank You Sendak!






I never tire of reading In the Night Kitchen. To me it is a perfect book. The words are fun to read, they sing while still telling a story. Every time I look at the images I see something new. It took me a few reads to notice the airplane above the bed, not sure how I missed that one. It is a slow quick book, meaning, I want to stay on every page but then before I know it, the book is over and I want to travel it again. This book reminds me to stay with every line, every word, every color, because in the end, they do add to something great. THANK YOU MAURICE SENDAK for your delight. You continue to inspire me.

Collages





                            




                                    These collages were made from the NY Times Design Section.
                           The first is a book cover for a pretend novel titled: Color Me Way Nightly.
