I've been carrying around one of those top-spiral bound steno books with grid paper. I like symmetry, so I like having the grid underlaying the sketching. My Blogger "skills" -- which were minimal to begin with -- are rusty, but here are some of what I have so far, rendered in smudgy pencil. I think they may be stitched on a white ground, with shades of white and extremely pastel colors and some silver. I may have mentioned before that white is my favorite color. . .

Mmmmmm gorgeous possibilities!!
I find the second one particularly fascinating - like an unfurling leaf bud or flower - full of possibilty.
Happy to see you working and inspired :o)

very cool...similar and different at the same time...
me likey! wanna see more!
oooo...lovely! It's interesting that you like grids AND the free-form circular shapes you've drawn. I'm looking forward to watching these develop.
Snap! For our next show at the cafe, we're doing prints 4x4 and I'm quartering one plate. I can picture yours finished. Understated style, that's you!
love these! orderly, but organic, hinting at patterns but not too symmetrical. Love the second and especially the fourth. I wonder if using the trick of turning the paper around would prove fruitful for creating something abstract in rectangular form. Be interesting to try.
These are great! And thanks, by the way, for your very helpful feedback on my hand piece.
