tree ring print...

via tomorrow started

my jaw dropped when i saw this. seriously, amazing print and i would never have thought it was a direct impression from the tree itself, because those undulating lines look unreal. nature is a mystery...

measuring time....

...through growth rings. i've been thinking about growth rings and collecting images/ideas of them. i'm using them in a new pattern i'm embroidering. i like the idea of seeing time, of having a physical representation of an ephemeral object.

highlight of the day:
+ snow! this morning
+ i made the front page on etsy! as obsessive as i am though, i didn't even get to see it, but it made my day to get that kind of exposure. shout outs to kjersten hayes and Alyssa of BROOKLYNrehab
