I just joined an artists group-we meet every other week and will be making a collaborative book. We have folks who do letterpress, woodcuts, illustration, calligraphy-It is so inspirational to see the other artist's work and learn a bit about their style.

I have recently been inspired by crayons. As a teacher I have access to all the left over, broken and unwanted crayons that are left behind at the end of the school year. One of my summer projects was to take those crayons and melt them down and make new crayons...the colors are wonderful.
