Today at the flea market I saw remarkable things. Unfortunately some of them had to go by the wayside because of my cash situation…but remarkable nonetheless. I try to walk away from objects that catch my eye and if it haunts me I reconsider. Seems like a good thing for me and not so good for the vendors trying to unload their goods.

This is a reclaimed wood artist. Very interesting pieces out of palettes and barn boards. I am deciding whether a coffee table he created with an old window on it fits in our living room.

When I cleaned my studio this week I also uncovered these pages I had stacked and bookmarked for inspiration. It is such a gift to discover something that sparked you and still see the relevance though time has passed.

“To feed your Muse, then, you should always have been hungry about life since you were a child. If not, it is a little late to start.”
—Ray Bradbury

Come on, Mr. Bradbury. It is never too late to start. We just have to open our eyes to possibilities no matter our age or situation.
