Painting patterns on tracing paper for mixed media pieces as large paintings in their ugly/awkward stage wait for attention.

Today's work in the studio: putting together journal covers with materials on hand. I've got Kraft-tex (paper leather) matched up with dyed mixed papers or gel-plate prints. The covers will encase 80 pages of mixed-media paper suitable for sketching

The beach along the Caribbean Sea 

The beach along the Caribbean Sea 

Tortuguero Village

March 23, 2016

Escaping the Nebraska cold to walk barefoot along the Caribbean beaches of Costa Rica was wonderful. It was about a 2-mile walk from the lodge to Tortuguero Village, a small, sleepy town where activity increases later in the day. Along these beaches during the summer and early fall, sea turtles lay their eggs. I walked around the town during the heat of midday, walked on a few trails of the national park, bought a few gifts and caught a water taxi back up to the lodge.

A relaxing evening with a book and a great meal of grilled chicken served with a pineapple, mango, coconut sauce rounded out the day.
