week 5: the week that was together

this week, we finally saw each other. we ate, laughed, made a mess, and laughed more.

we tried making "screen print" images on aluminum with a briar roller and craft paper.
the "task" was to "break the rules" and i did by forgetting to take pictures past this point. we were too focused i think. but i actually really liked how easy, cost efficient, and simple it was to draw an image on the aluminum and transfer it to craft paper. i think we could really plan this out and make it into something more complete. 
i've also realized my affection for craft paper.

it's a deep affection. one that makes me feel warm.
which is good because snow is here, maple syrup is at the market, and even the brussel sprouts and dark, leafy greens are thinking it's too cold to keep growing.

this was a short week. too much wrapping, travel thinking, and westward ambition.
