It's Summer

You know it's summer in Madison, these people are back on their bikes and walking their dogs now that the weather has turned summer wonderful.
For me I've fallen into a routine of dye pots and sketching outdoors. I like the break from weaving and spend more time thinking about things instead of immersing myself in process for the winter.

My friend Nina dropped off a bag of rhubarb from her back yard. There's dye inspiration there.

that red to green transition would make some cook skin colors...

I have been fiddling around with my idea of weaving 3 strips showing students passing in the halls at a high school. It's very much a work in progress, nothing has really jelled yet.
But these things take time.

trying color ideas...i'm still not sure I'll weave this

I've headed off on a few bike drawing adventures, I always find a day of sketching satisfies me.

Yes it's summer mode...wonder what I'll do tomorrow?
