| High up in the Cimarron "In the high-up world of the Cimarron I wander to a place I've known Sheltered there by giant peaks I hike the trail along the creek And do a little day dream chasin' "Til I finally reach the West Fork Basin The stream surfaces beneath a boulder, And no water was ever colder. Fed by rain and winter snow It begins right here as a narrow flow. Low banks grow thick with luscious grass And wildflowers bloom en masse. Lying on the grassy bench above the stream Is like being part of a peaceful dream; Watching the weasels at their play, And eagles soaring up and away, I could remain has the clouds float by 'Til the moon turns green and theses rocks learn to fly" bj |

| Landscape Quilt This is my first attempt at a landscape quilt using my own pattern. It is quite an involved process of layers, contours and colors. The small painting at the bottom was my reference. It is a painting I did many years ago called "Patagonia Grasslands" and depicts Mount Wrightson in southern AZ from the Patagonia side. The hanging quilt measures approximately 16x22" |
