My apologies for being away. My sister had to evacuate her home in Florida due to hurricane Irma. She and her kitties stayed with me for 10 days. I was quite busy during this time. Life has returned to normal now. (Her home was spared any major damage)

Just got home from a 23 hour whirlwind trip to the coast!!!! Met up with Lance down near Newport for some sunset shooting. We were able to get on the backside of these rocks so even though the tide was going out the wave action was still pretty sweet....
We really lucked out with the sky....all day it was crystal clear in Portland and on the way to the coast I could see these little clouds forming off in the distance and they hung around till after sunset!!!!
Hope you are all having a great weekend!!!!

The backsplash when in today. I really like it. Adds a traditional element to a somewhat modern kitchen.

We just had the interior of our house painted.
Diane wanted a backsplash. She chose this color and the painter just finished installing them
I found this vintage crewel pieces (probably made from a craft kit in the '70s) at a junk store in York, PA. It was priced for three dollars (on a bandaid!), and I got it for one dollar. Hooray!
This marble mosaic is completely hand-made using 100% natural stones and hand-cut tiles.

i don't love my kitchen but i do love the backsplash tiles and the laboratory surface countertops. and kewpie :)
Blend of two ambient frames. And can't remember...may have blended in a bit from a flash frame (flash would have been bounced in from the left). Shot for a designer.
This ended up being surprisingly difficult. Client really wanted this straight-on shot of the stove/backsplash, but the super-reflective glass tiles were problematic...there was a wall of windows opposite the stove/behind the camera, which made it pretty much impossible to discern the ombre effect in the backsplash. So my client and her client held a large cloth over the windows (we were worried about using tape since the walls had recently been painted). They were showing up in the tiles, though, so they hid themselves between the fabric and the wall. Awkward, but they were troopers.
Even with the windows covered, there was a ton of cloning to be done on the tiles (getting rid of the camera and tripod, for starters :) Guessing I replaced at least 20 reflection-filled tiles with like-colored reflection-free tiles. I left some reflections here and there, to hopefully keep it looking real.
The dining room was completely filled with stuff when I arrived. My client quickly neatened it up back there. Wish I'd spent a little more time on the chair position.
Feedback/suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks!
for those interested in the installation of the backsplash, my husband installed it with his dad. I asked him about the most challenging part . He said that the hardest part was matching the corners & making them look nice, which he expected from reading about it (I think that white grout helps make the corners look uniform). The second hardest part was grouting because the white glaze on the penny tiles is not that deep, i.e., does not cover the entire side of the penny tile. Beneath the white glaze is a grey color, so he had to grout enough to cover the grey, but not so much as to cover the tiles. He didn't expect this.
see "my home" set in my photostream. i have quite a few photos of the backsplash in differing stages of completion.
another view of the completed backsplash
see before grout here
the white-on-white looks clean & bright. the all-white look is modern even though pennies are typically vintage. the penny tiles were also economical. see comments below for pricing and where to buy.
This 3 x 3 glass subway tile was purchased from www.susanjablon.com. She has some of the best customer service around! I think the color is Green apple.
