"Friend"...a little sculpture I made out of homemade marble...The putty is baby powder with powdered resin glue...

Making my own furry marble...(btw Aragonite sand is actually crushed marble, from reptile section of Petsmart!)

Our art assistants...Jadzia & B'Elanna are in charge of eco-friendliness, tippy-ness, smelly-ness, & turn on some music but nothing that will harsh my vibe...Purr...Purr...Rrarr...Grrr...They also handle this place is messy, we will pee on things & then the humans will pick them up...

"Essence of Bee", ferrocement sculpture...work in progress...

No-weld armature for Ferrocement sculpture...(by moi, Sari Grove, bang on the pic to get to a better 'splanation)...

Crescent Moon: Saturday Night, Toronto, Canada, 8:00 pm, Feb. 25, 2012...Bitingly cold, should have worn a hat, Joseph called me out to see the moon...Which if anyone calls you to see a moon, you must go...(like always buy lemonade from a kid at a homemade stand)...

Sari Grove Thank you Allison...I love to know these things...My husband said it was Venus, but I am shy to say that because it just looks like a star...It's hard to believe that itty bitty sparkly thing is a whole planet!

13 Trumpeter swans including cygnets, a family of Bufflehead ducks, Mallards, brown Spotted ducks, Canada geese, rock Dove pigeons- all this morning with me at Bluffers Park & Red Ribbon wild bird seed & my flowery hippy boots from Canadian Tire which are indeed waterproof 'cause when I went in the water I thought one Trumpeter was going to have a conniption (that a human could actually swim! Actually was wearing a fluffy white coat so they thought maybe I was a giant swan)...If you feed them alot they give you a whole trumpet concert Chuck Mangione would be proud of...Please Feed The BIRDS! (please)
