Retreat

August 10, 2017

I've taken some time to rest this summer. 

Sometimes that's easy. I just finished the first season of The Great British Baking Show and loved every second. I've read an amazing amount this summer, though perhaps that's normal.

I've also spent some time in silence.

And of course, I've spent time working through old projects, like this one.

These aren't summer pictures :) I haven't made time to edit my backlog in months, so these are actually from a February walk in the woods.

That was another time of rest, and silence. So it feels right to reconnect with these images in this new season.

Here's to the next steps down the path. 

 

Cheers, 

Charity

New work. Marinating ideas. First word on what's next.

Colored pencil and graphite on paper
You definitely need to see these #headshots from my #photoshoot with @vaughn33 - lucky to be quarantining with these lovelies! 💐
When #whatsnext feels unknowable, it feels good to design the #nextstep for your #embroidery project 😍 #fezembroidery #moroccanembroidery
Teaching my #first #paintnsip tonight, and these are my four trial run ideas (first is copy of Van Gogh)... which one should I teach to beginners? 1, 2, 3, or 4?
#morningwalk 
After abruptly losing my job (and home and future plans) two weeks ago, I feel like I’m finally getting settled into this new normal. Like a lot of you, I’m figuring out this #quarantinelife and starting to sketch out ideas
clouded paths carry 
us toward this unexpected
horizon. dawn? dusk?
So hard to know what the future holds - or even the next 24 hours - but I’m always grateful for some quality time on the #beachesofmorocco
#takeawalk
#tetouanembroidery often -always? - uses this doubled brick stitch to fill the hand drawn shapes, and often outlines some or all shapes in black 🎉
Finally finished the #nextlevel of this #moroccanembroidery I’ve been working on. Crazy excited to design the next step 😍
#hiking : happy, thank you, #moreplease
#finished #butnotironed 😍
