Unpacking has become a way of life, until it isn’t.
When I found the tile to finish this piece, my wish was granted.
The top of my dresser and I thank you.

Inspiration and Influence
a Muse
#1. Has to be Marlene Hurley Marshall author of the book “Making Bits & Pieces Mosaics” – Circa 1998 – all it took was a few pages to inspire me to glue objects, china and glass. The book is out of print but copies are still available online.
I couldn’t get enough of her bits and pieces mosaic tile table and ended up creating a few of my own.
Look for Marlene’s book … you’ll love it.
#2. My fourth grade teacher Mrs. Kloth who loved sharing her passion for art, found objects and glue.
#3. Simon Rodia “The Watts Tower of Simon Rodia”
#5. Isaiah Zagar
#6. Beatrice Wood
#7. Grandma Prisbrey’s and her Bottle Village
#8. Hannah Hoch
#9. Joseph Cornell
#10. Andy Warhol
Quite a mixed bag, if I do say so myself.
Inconclusive Travel Plans
2012 Blast from the Past …
I’ve been in many places, but I’ve never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can’t go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.
I’ve also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.
I have, however, been in Sane. They don’t have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work.
I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I’m not too much on physical activity anymore.
I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.
I’ve been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.
Sometimes I’m in Capable, and I go there more often as I’m getting older.
One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!
I may have been in Continent, and I don’t remember what country I was in. It’s an age thing. They tell me it is very wet and damp there. 🙂 The end. Author unknown.
SAVE THE HUMANS.
PEACE.
