Making Test Faces

One fine day at the craft store I decided to test some colored pens

Let's not get carried away

Harvest Faces

Squashy....by a special guest artist
Lest you think there is only one person in our household who's handy with the Sharpie, we offer this photo. My wife drew this delightful picture. Could it be that all my doodling is beginning to rub off? Maybe. My special guest artist is talented in many fields including weaving and spinning. She also has done a lot with card making and other paper crafts.

Mrs. Bartster celebrated a birthday yesterday and continues to find outlets for her considerable creativity and love for life. I'm one lucky blogger!

"I am unanimous in that"


Maybe you remember the 1970's era Brit-com, "Are You Being Served?" The matronly salesclerk, Mrs. Slocum,(whose beehive coiffure changed hue and color in nearly every scene) would often emphatically state, "And I am unanimous in that."

More recently, a witty colleague in reporting a meeting spoke of the tenor of the discussion as "nearly unanimous...wait, you can't do that." Of course I had to scrawl a bit of commentary...;

It appears we are half way unanimous here
