Notes from Featherlady Studio - wildlife art of Northwest artist Julie Thompson. Thursday, February 03, 2011. I'm a day late with this, but have put two names in a hat and pulled out one.

Scott will receive the remaining card. I'll be in touch with both of you for mailing addresses. :-). But I'm working on it! Next Monda...

Notes from Featherlady Studio - wildlife art of Northwest artist Julie Thompson. Monday, January 07, 2013. How long will it take to produce this current painting from start to finish? I am not a photographer by any stretch, I am just a painter armed with a point-and-click determined to capture what I see, to preserve it, to help me remember the colors, the light, the details. This year I will. Get back up there. Roll on Spring, I'm ready for another mountain trek. Links to this post. Habits need hard wor...

She may be slow, but she always gets to where she's going. Eventually.'. Should this not be to keep heat IN? It turns out that it was intended this way, which is not a thought that would cross the mind of a typical camper of my latitude.

Dragondust: November 2009
http://tpurin.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 25, 2009. I wanted to make a gryphon character of my own to play with Sage's gryphon character Jhator. On the Totemlands Forum. He's still a sketch for now, but you get the idea.

Friday, October 15, 2010. Trying to come up with an idea for the Jackalope Show. So far this is the best design I've come up with for a Prehistoric Jackalope.
