Looking back helps me to see ahead.

At the end of the year, I like to take some time to browse through the past 12 months. I look at my date book, I clean out files, I review the work I have created. It gives me a great feeling of accomplishment. I came across these abstracts that I had set aside to a junk pile. A little time passing gives me perspective, and I see these in a new light. Not sure why I did not like them, but I see something more I need to explore, a new path to follow. I like that.

2011 Color of the Year

I am not yet tired of apple green. I loved it all last year (see 2010 Color of The Year), and it looks like it will carry over to 2011 as my favorite. My husband said no way to apple green walls in our family room. But somehow, he was OK with the two full-length, GREEN sofas I just ordered! I am committed to this color!
