2011. The beginning of the end.

'Oval' is reversible.  

Scrunched.

Sketches........Can you tell everything I make are reversible? Fleece doesn't unravel.

We drove from Illinois to Mendocino, CA! To prevent my going crazy riding that long...so I brought yarn with me and started crocheting. This is what happens when you sorta go crazy. 'CROCHET CHAKRAS'

The deconstruction of the first one bore many others.  

Like giant dream catchers they caught your...toes.

2006. Fleece for nephew Taylor. In Korea they would call this use of piecing scraps together 'Bojagi'.

Chemo cartoons 2006

3 years after chemo,  I used the pc mouse to "draw".  It was catharsis for my psyche to exorcise memories of cancer and transform them into cartoons.

I shared the memories on a blogspot but have since taken the website down.  Back in 2002 I couldn't find any funny literature or cartoons on cancer, it just wasn't in the public domain; but now there are so many good and better stories being shared.
