Cold Winter
It has been bitterly cold lately here in north-central Iowa. I live in a very old home on 6 acres in the middle of farm country. The winters are cold, the snow can pile up, and the cold wind has no where to hide. I used to dislike this time of year a lot, but this year I have really gotten in tune with what this season holds: quiet reflection, cozy blankets, good books, poetry, drawing, personal projects, delicious food…
I’ve also been experimenting with new techniques in printmaking: Creating more detail in linocut, Chine Colle, and dry point on plastic.
What are some of your favorite winter things to do?
