January 29, 2018 by kellywalkerstudios

I like the feel of this new yarn.  It works up really nice and the colors are beautiful.  The new scarf turned out great….the weight is perfect.  And the shawl I started earlier in the week is done.  You can see more about it here.

Happy Birthday Jackson Pollock….and Mama

January 28, 2018 by kellywalkerstudios

SAMSUNG DIGITAL CAMERAKnown for his drip style of painting, Jackson Pollock was an abstract expressionist painter.  Born on this day in 1912, he led a volatile life.  You can read more about him here.

And today I am also remembering my mama.  My biggest wish is that she would have lived long enough to see The Studio.  I think she would have loved it and what we are doing there.  I hope she knows.  Happy 76th Birthday Mama.  We miss you every day. (Read more about my mom here.)
