The under-layer is from a page of my old art history notes on Rodin. I highlighted the word “unfinished,” then gessoed over everything else, so it isn’t quite legible, and added the tree and map.

I can’t remember if I shared any of these. If I did, it was crappy cellphone photos, not scans, so now that I’ve scanned the whole thing I may as well post some of the images here.

When It Rains
Frances went to the vet on Thursday. I found a couple of lumps on her undercarriage and was concerned about them. Turns out they were not the fatty tumors of my dreams, but are mammary tumors. So she’s going to need surgery, which is going to be HELLA expensive. Holy crap, I almost choked on my spleen when they gave me the estimate! $1400-1700, depending on what they find once they get inside her.
So if any of y’all have thought to yourself, “Gee, I’d love to have one of those weird little collage-y things she makes all for my very own,” now is your lucky day. I’ve put some stuff up on Etsy. Everything is US$50 or under, except for one artist book.
But just look at the adorable puppy! She has no idea how much anxiety she causes for me, or how stinkin’ cute she is. She just wants it to stop raining. AND SO DO I.
