Tea Towels!

Tea Towels in full and border prints. 18 x 27 $30.00

I'm trying something old and new: Creating tea towels from designs I created when I was in fabric school. Some of the above will be in a February month-long show at Au Coquelet Restaurant & Café. 2000 University Ave. & Milvia. Open 7AM-Midnight daily!
This show will feature tea towels from many of my friends who attended The California School of Professional Fabric Design. Some are completely hand-made while others, like mine, have been printed professionally on cotton-linen canvas. All are vibrant, unusual and reflective of the artists who designed them.

Lettering for an Ashram sign!:


I had never been to an Ashram before, but this past weekend I was able to remedy that. A few weeks ago, I had been asked to paint the lettering, the borders and the little elephant in the corner on the Sonoma Ashram's Welcome sign. No, I don't usually do lettering nor do I often paint in acrylic, but this was such a sweet little job, I had to give it a whirl. And this Saturday I drove up to the Ashram and hung the sign with Daphne White, the head of the Ashram's board. It was she, in fact, that contacted me to do the job. And it was through a mutual poet friend that connected Daphne with me (thank you, 'lyn!)

I stayed and met the Ashram's spiritual leader, Babaji, and petted goats, a kitty and photographed the lovely grounds. Loved it! So peaceful and calm, and only 40 minutes away from my house. I am definitely going back for a needed zen time-out. (They even have yoga classes)!

The entry garden as you walk in...Ganesh with flowers.

Artichokes!
These are just some of the veggies and other
edibles the Ashram grows on the grounds.
They are sold at the Sonoma Farmer's Market.

Very curious, darling goats. Soon, the Ashram will be making its own
milk and even ice cream from these gals!
