Back to Vermont

It has been wonderful to return to my old studio, clean out the cobwebs and get cracking again.  Most of the work so far has been completing pieces that began in Sydney.  The long piece that I am (at the moment) calling Book Worm just keeps growing.  I have almost run out of round tea bags and need to replenish my supply:

I have finished a layered work that I also began in Sydney and brought here in pieces in a box.  I've been trying to decide if I will keep the strings or eliminate them.  So far, they stay:

Looking to do something new, I'm experimenting with using printmaking techniques with the tea bags adhered to paper.  I have done some wood cut printing and plan to use the press soon to see what kind of results I might get.
