Week 4 & 5: Canvas of White

The canvas the past two weeks has been white...not because I haven't "painted" anything, but because it has been snowing off and on for two weeks. This has caused me to go into hibernation and seek for solace within my bookshelves some of which are filled with genealogy in need of organization. I have decided that is where I am going to be for the next month...deep in pruning my family trees since its too cold to prune apple trees. Pruning will always lead to healthier trees and a better crop. Does the same rule apply to family trees?

Week 2/3: Farm Photography

Last week I read an article about taking photos of your garden. This idea intrigues me and I think it is my first stroke on my canvas for the year (see last week). Taking photos of things growing or grown and of interest around the garden adds to the creative process of planting, growing, and harvesting. Look for some of the photos I take during the year on this blog.

Week 1: A New Beginning

A new year always spurs one on to new resolutions and organizing and planning. The year stretches before us like a blank canvas waiting for us to paint our dreams and desires onto its waiting whiteness. This is the time that we do the creative planning of what will be on that canvas as the year unfolds.....so dream on everyone.
