Someone asked me what I’ve been doing, since I’ve not been talking art lately! I’ve been focused on the current projects at hand, for the upcoming CWCCA national specialty.

Here’s some of my recent rough sketches on the pendant/ornament pieces I’m making as awards for agility. I’m making 70 of these… it’s a [...]

Welcome to the world TiaMarie!

February 28th, 2009

We got to see my niece finally. This was my first time taking pics of someone elses kid, which was weird! I’m not a baby person at all (Rather “anti babies that are not my own” really), but she sure is cute! She’s a very laidback, needy, cuddly girl.
She’s polite [...]

Goofy Traum

February 26th, 2009

Can anyone tell I’m stir-crazy from the rain this week?? ;)

Look at those pearly whites! He’s almost 7, and hasn’t had a professional cleaning his whole life! Proof of the benefits of raw feeding :) He loves his raw meaty bones!

Sleepy Cee

Galaxy waiting patiently for the rain to stop. It’s been muggy, or pouring the past few days. Taken with my vintage Canon 35-70 lens.

Oh Covy… the trouble maker.

February 26th, 2009

Every big family needs to have a trouble-maker, and Cove while one of the sweetest dogs you can imagine, is by default, winner of “the naughtiest dog” in our household contest.

I adore him, but if not for Hubby and Kidlets love for him, I can tell you he wouldn’t be here still if it were [...]

Tried to snap a family pic at Silver Falls this weekend. Curt being anti-photo, was being a goof…

Curt won’t be so cocky when this pic is up on the wall, huh? LOL I swear, we only have like 5 pics together where he’s not goofing off! He’s like a very overgrown 12 [...]

Went to a friends place to visit her puppies. Plan had been to see them last week, but I was sick and ‘dying’, so that plan failed. Of course last week was excellent weather, while this week is rainy, gross weather. Figures! The pics aren’t the best, but still of adorable [...]

Guess who’s an Aunt???

I am! I am!
TiaMarie Danielle born 2/23/09 at 8:03am 8lbs 13oz , 19inches. Because I was sick last week (Still getting over it), Dea sounded hoarse today, and Curt stayed home sick today we’ve not SEEN her yet (I got two calls saying the family misses their “official photographer”), but we’ll be [...]

Curt stayed home sick today, and laid on the futon ALL day. Kiwi thought this was heaven, as her dream in life is to be a living cushion/pillow. She got her wish!

Really cool goodwill find!

February 23rd, 2009

We dropped by goodwill yesterday, and Curt spotted a canon EF lens and we decided to nab it at $13. It was in really good condition (Looks never used, even has a manufacturer sticker on it that’s completely untouched!) Get home, and turns out it’s one of the vintage lenses I’ve been drooling [...]
