Little Bits of Creation
I managed to spend a short amount of time painting today. Here's the results (keep in mind this is a badly lit photo and this is just the very barest foundation of the painting; just a sketch really, blocked in):

It was inspired by a "happy accident" photo my mom took of the carousel at the Phoenix Zoo when we were there:

Lily spent a little time working as well:

This is one of her very first representational drawings. It's of chalk, so I wanted to capture it. It's a plate with some food on it (she made individual strands of spaghetti, then erased them, then put something called "dot food" on the plate). To the left and right of the plate you can see napkins, utensils, etc.
And here's an update on my knitting. I finished the cabled mitts, but left them at work (where I've been wearing them constantly), so alas, no photo. But here's the progress so far on Adam's socks:

That's a great photo. I like what you've got going there.

(I meant the carousel painting, if that wasn't obvious.)
