Graining

This is my birch plywood piece in progress. I'm not really sure where it will go from here, but I have a few different ideas. I haven't had a chance to work on it as much as I would have liked to yet today, since I ended up breaking one of my dining room chairs this morning (due to it being too old, not due to me being too heavy lol...). So most of my time was spent taking the chair apart the rest of the way and cleaning up the ensuing mess. There was disintegrated particle board and rusty staples all over my kitchen floor this afternoon, enough to qualify this as a domestic disaster. I took a break from it by going on a "nature walk" around the pond by my place. I saw two yellow-bellied slider turtles sunning themselves together on a rock, very cute.

I worked on the look of this blog a bit last night: added my own banner and changed some font colors, etc. And I also amended my comment section so anyone can post comments now, not just people registered on Blogger. So post away! (Please...) I'm going to start working in my studio for a couple hours right about now.
