Practice, practice, practice!

I have been taking a calligraphy class. To get the most out of that class I have been doing the suggested homework 

(Here an practicing capitals by creating an alphabetic list of something -- I choose fabric

and yes Jacquard has a 'u'!)

 as well as some other things like creating cards

recreating my logo and tag line 

and addressing a letter to CBS News Sunday Morning along with a ZenTangle. The idea is that a bunch of Certified ZenTangle Teachers are sending letters and ZenTangles in on April 1st to try and get Rick and Maria on to talk about ZenTangles.

It is such a great thing, ZenTangles and has done so much for so many that creating a greater awareness of it would be even better!

 And I had another excuse to practice my calligraphy!

Cause I am having a challenge finding excuses...

Things are starting to bloom at the studio. I started hanging some of the art I have either collected or created. Most of the contractors work is finished; hanging the track lights, electrical and plumbing for the washer and dryer (dying fabric here I come!), installing a hanging rail around the space... even the addition of a refrigerator for my lunch, keeping dye concentrates fresh and chilling the wine for the opening...
I hope your summer is off to a great beginning as well.
