I made the first shadow box as a Christmas present for my mother, who taught me shell names like "cat's paw" and "lady slipper" as a child. (All shells were collected on Sanibel Island, Florida, over the course of 4 trips.) Now I've made 10 different "compositions" --all 5" x 7" in shadow boxes that look like museum specimen cases. Most of the shells are "mini" versions of a larger shell; a few are their normal size. This collection was a gift to a friend who loves cats -- hence, the four specimens of "cat's paw".

Lomo Action Sampler camera with colored gels added to the lenses. Kirkland 200 film, expired in 2002.
i took the action sampler on holiday to turkey. i took some photos. i then completely forgot about the exposed roll of film until i found it about three years later. the combination of the sampler's erratic nature and the old film made for some interesting results.
Its been over a year in the making, but I finally finished this project. I started the Rebecca Ringquist Dropcloth Sampler at an embroidery class at Fabric Nosherie last spring and finished it soon after. I finally made it into the pillow I'd been envisioning and finished it up over the weekend. I used shot cottons bought from Bon Bon Atilier; I'm a little sad that both shops I bought my supplies at have since closed.

A Utah Transit Authority FrontRunner commute passes the skeletal remains of the Utah Ore Sampling Co. building in Murray, Utah on June 19, 2018. The structure was built between the Union Pacific and Denver & Rio Grande Western railroads in 1925. UtahRails.net has an excellent history of the structure and its purpose here: utahrails.net/mining/utah-ore-sampling.php
