I had some time today to work on this print. It’s an image I’ve done before and one that finds its way into my head quite often. It has to do with watching thoughts (or times in our life, or even lifetimes) as they go around and around before us; how we’ll continue to experience [...]

After 2-plus solid weeks of cutting, collaging, doodling, painting, scanning (and really tired eyes), my world map is complete. (big sigh.) BOY, that was a marathon!
