Up earlier than everyone, but not in my own home. Like a spare part, I wobbled about the house after the many festive meals, then decided to have that promised play with the undiscovered buttons on my camera. Kids were draped over the sofas still fast asleep - time to mess about with long exposure times. One thing led to another, five minutes turned to more than, continued at a visit to my parents. My appreciative mother constantly reviewing - ever enthusiastic about any of my projects.
It's always great for me to take alternative portraits of the kids and my parents. And each time I return to my folks, I return with some old momento - which lately have become small works of art or craft - frottage of their possessions, simplistic sketches, and this time these photos.
I loved this unplanned project - think I'll do something with these. You do have to move back to see the portraits amongst these. Really exciting - feel like I'm going to give birth again, except this time in clay.
