i started a crazy project to make advent calendars using some of the nature specimens that are piling up around my house.  i am only making twelve calendars, and i completely underestimated the effort involved.  anyway, i am already up to day 20, which will be pressed fern leaves.  here they are all laid out waiting to go into the calendar.  you can get a glimpse of the calendar under the “shop” button above. it seemed like such a good idea at first, but alas, i am not going to sell these calendars–too labor intensive for commerce, too commercial for art. oh well.
