1:02 PM: up up up up up up [#] [1]

there are cherry blossoms beginning already! i'm so excited. and maybe they aren't cherry blossoms, but there are bright pink flowers blooming against a bright blue sky. i'm not doing very well on the solo artist dates, but the bus ride into work kind of functions that way, as i get to observe people and things i might not otherwise see. and i listen to music differently, too. usually it's background to accomplish a primary task, but on the bus it becomes more primary, more poetry, as if the world is unfolding in time to the music.

artist's way last night went well again: we made masks for mardi gras (and a happy fat tuesday to you today, btw!) and to highlight the "identity" chapter, and it turned out rob had a very good artist date last week at the portland art museum he was able to eloquently articulate, and northwest indian masks were some of the highlights. mask-making requires a lot of materials if you want to give people a variety of materials and textures and oddities; rob asked if our primary objective was to make more of a mess each time we met. i can think of one more activity which is likely to be very messy, but other than that i'm not sure we do. after cleaning up, i realized i spend at least 10 hours a week on artist's way.

what a beautiful description of pink blooming. We are still cold with only contrasts of brown. But despite the temperature this morning, there were birds singing away as they do on a beautiful spring morning.
