I am UmberDove.

And by that, I mean an artist.  One who hears stories in the wind, who paints because it is what her soul tells her to do, who smiths because the muse moves through her fingertips, who loves nothing more than the promise of an unexplored trail, the sound of the ocean in her ears, and scent of a serious cup of coffee.

UmberDove

Inspired By:

Hiroshige's "The Plain at Suzaki"

The treeline behind the house at dawn
Instinct vs. Conscious Decision

Listening to:

Drinking:
Guatemalan Fair Trade coffee beans
English Breakfast tea with milk and sugar
Fumé Blanc

Eating:
Homemade whole wheat bagels (with pomegranate jelly - TASTEBUDS HAVE DIED AND GONE TO HEAVEN)
Extra Sharp Cheddar

Thinking About:
Taking a run as soon as I return from the barn this morning
Buying a new tea kettle (I may have accidentally burned mine out yesterday)
Photographing new work, the first two pieces in "The Virtue of Instinct" to show you (but I'm a tease and it will have to wait until tomorrow)

Lusting After:
The scent of the ocean

On My Desk:
A very round orange ball of cat
A silver wing from South Dakota
A melange of sharpies and scissors neatly corralled in ceramic planters
Two cabochons of Dendritic Opal (I couldn't help it, they were so beautiful with REAL scenes of snowy mountains and two black ravens and a few scraggly winter firs, and I had to buy them just to touch and hold tight)
