13.1.10







I will not run around for a couple of days. I´m slightly knocked out with fever.
Maybe I will read a book or just listen to the radio. I will be still, enjoying
time to think.

Débora Figueiredo is a great illustrator. I love her cut out mannerism. She´ve
made the merry go round figure on this postcard. See the other sweet figures
here.

I bought Débora's set of cards for Miles after seeing them here - I'm so pleased with them! I love her style too.
Hope you're feeling better soon:)

Hope you feel better soon. It is good to take a break. I like your snow photos. I'm thinking the same - I just posted some snowflake crochet on my blog today.

Oh, is that a clown? What a sweet little thing!

Megan Dempsey said...

Feel better! Your first picture, of the tree branches with the bird, has such a romantic sensibility and reminds me of "Wuthering Heights!"

love the bird. great to catch it with all the snow on the branch. Happy New Year, Elizabeth! May healthfulness return.

My friend and I were just saying you'd make a great cinematographer. You have such a distinct and evocative style. Or maybe you are already? I would have hired you to do the sets/lighting/camera work on the 'Millenium Trilogy' movies! What a great series of books they are. Maybe they have a more Swedish name in Sweden?

Make it Easy said...
