I've tried to incorporate some of these things in my tile, like the grapevine for the vineyards, Archer for the Abbey, and Vache for the dairy farms. My little town is the 3rd oldest town in Oregon and is reported to be haunted. Yep, the whole town has been cursed by a witch who haunts our only graveyard! 'Nzeppel reminds me of cobwebs when it's filled in, which is why I put it in the tile, too.
I'm not overly fond of my work this week, in fact, I might go so far as to use the four-letter 'H' word, but I don't really have time to do another, so I'm forced to put it in here (and you're forced to look at it!:)
I have so enjoyed getting glimpses into everyone's lives this week! I hope you liked the small look into mine:)
Oregon.....vineyards....ahhh one state I have never been able to visit but have always wanted too. Thank you for sharing your tile and your thoughts about your beautiful home!
ReplyDeleteI just told someone in Maine how much I love the Northeast...but I also love the Northwest!!! You live in a beautiful state...I envy your cool, cool summers...And your tile is just lovely!!
ReplyDeleteWell I love it! Especially the Bridgen string coiling around, bringing all the elements together.
ReplyDeleteI love how you wrapped this all around the spiral. Really great.
ReplyDeleteYour tile does your town justice. A haunted town...I may need to visit.
ReplyDeleteLove your spiral!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat result!
ReplyDeleteSorry you don't like your art, because I sure do! And we're neighbors, since I live in Washington. IF I couldn't live here the only other place I'd like to live is Oregon. Also really enjoyed your description of your small town. I'm going to go google "second oldest town in Oregon" and see if I can find it. I think I know about that trapist monastery you mentioned. I've been through your state many times, and have enjoyed being on the off roads and visiting scenic places.
ReplyDeleteI enlarged it so I could really see it well, and it is truly beautiful. I love all the little raspberries as if on a vine covering it, too.
ReplyDeletei totally missed getting this one done. i tried, just too many other things that needed to get done. hahaha! the 'h' word - never :) i really like the lower left corner - that pattern - don't know what it is -you did a fine job!
