It has been a busy week. I have worked on crafty cloth wrapped baskets and sketched at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. (There was a guild meeting, book club and great lunches as well). What I haven't done is work on the dye monoprints that I started two weeks ago. I got side-tracked by a family funeral and then started the Color Theory class. I am too easily distracted by outside events. I often wonder how some people just seem to throw together so much work and it always looks great! It takes me forever to research my idea and try out my techniques before I finally get down to business. Maybe I'm too cautious. This week I will try to work on my color exercises and get back to monoprinting. I saw some beautiful colors at the garden's Climatron.

I am anxious to try and imitate some of those beautiful greens and reds together.
