Photos taken on a hike in the Greenhorn Mountains, close to Rye, Colorado, 2009.
The weather this weekend was too perfect to stay inside and work. Instead I spent my time doing lots of walking, meeting up with friends in town celebrating the KU Final Four/ Championship game, sitting in parks, drinking coffee on my deck, etc. I think this is why I like having four seasons — when the weather is beautiful, I appreciate it more.. Last night I was having a late dinner on my deck with my neighbors and we were wholly surprised to see june bugs and fireflies already so early in the year.. And then we had a long pseudo-philosophical discussion about how amazing it is that there’s these little bugs flying around that light up. Nature is all pretty crazy-amazing when you think about it. That’s why I like to be out in it and make art about it.
Back to the paper cutting I go.
