Anne Shulenberger has created another little book using an old leather checkbook cover with collaged pages inside. The title is "Waves / Motion / Emotion" and two different sorts of waves are featured in it. The section of tan pages shows people waving their hands (including 2 children wearing surgical masks). The section of blue pages has photos of ocean waves. There are also words in each section: some phrases and some verses.
Carol Medina's pictures are below - some photographs taken on her rambles around Rossmoor and one artwork (bottom right). She says about the artwork: "it is simply crayon scratch board. I am sure many of you have done it in grade school. I gave it as an assignment many a time in my classes with the little ones. Also think I gave it to the adolescents and even once in a while to my adult classes . I always thought it was kinda fun and the kids liked it......."
FYI - here's how you do it: Put layers of various different colors of crayons onto a piece of paper, then a layer of black crayon over everything. Scratch a design with a sharp instrument through it, to reveal the colors. (It will have a black background, of course.)

Terri Snyder has been making a large cylindrical vase, as well as experimenting with watercolors and rubber stamps on cards. Nice work!
And Albert Goldreich has been making more of his colorful & highly textured vases, in his studio in Texas. Inspiring!
