Tweet Recently added to my book stash was this kitschy craft instruction manual I couldn’t resist mooching, if nothing else than for the title: a 1993 copy of Create Your Own Cross Stitch: How to turn your design ideas into reality.

Drawing from life

by rosedeniz November 2, 2009 art

Tweet I’ve been fumbling around the idea for awhile that the things we see online get digested so quickly. So I’m posing a little challenge to myself that for an unspecified period of time I draw the things I love and want to share.

Lace Paintings

by rosedeniz February 16, 2009 art
