Arts and Crafts together

When I first began to create art it was all on paper.
 Then eventually it moved onto board or canvas.
Oils and pastels, pen and ink large or  small  it all seemed to feel so temporal.
    In 1995 I was creating small outdoor murals. The very first one went to the back wall behind 'funk&junk' where a little FAMOUS restaurant hid named "Katrina's" . I worked for Kate and told her she needed a window on her back wall . So I painted one ... hence the beginning of my outdoor paintings , which eventually led to looking for a more permanent surface. Enter >> tiles and the marvelous tile mural at the Port of Friday Harbor.
 To be good at anything one must spend time.
        This tile spiral taught me a lot!!!
  Preparing me for the teaching of tile painting for our MURAL on Blair Avenue. Yeah Team!
