Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Spooky Stories}

October 19, 2008

I had some creative time today – the first time in weeks. College is going well – I received an A- in my first course so I am very pleased with that! :) My current course is on image editing and I am loving it! :)

I miss my blogging friends, and finding time to visit each of you! I am still trying to find that balance between work, school, and creative time. I love this time of year – the trees in Michigan are gorgeous right now. Hugs to each of you and hope to stop by and see you soon! :)

Upon that night, when fairies light

On Cassilis Downans dance,

Or owre the lays, in splendid blaze,

On sprightly coursers prance;

Or for Colean the rout is ta’en,

Beneath the moon’s pale beams;

There, up the Cove,to stray an’ rove,

Amang the rocks and streams

To sport that night;

Amang the bonie winding banks,

Where Doon rins, wimplin, clear;

Where Bruce ance rul’d the martial ranks,

An’ shook his Carrick spear;

Some merry, friendly, countra-folks

Together did convene,

To burn their nits, an’ pou their stocks,

An’ haud their Halloween

Fu’ blythe that night.

Robert Burns

About Sugar Lump Studios

I am a dabbler. I love to create using all sorts of mediums...pattern papers, stamping, fabric, assemblage, collage, altered art, a never ending smattering of whatever strikes my fancy in whimsical moments. I find creating allows my soul to be fulfilled and love to spend hours in the studio.

    Oh Nancy! I wish you every success as you return to school. I don't visit often enough and I miss you and your artwork. The altered cigar box assemblage I purchased from you is still one of my most favourite pieces. All the very best to you, my friend. Hugs…
