On my desk now

This quote from Jane Dunnewold jumped out at me. I have posted it opposite my desk in my studio:

 Right now, the faces of the very old fascinate me. I suppose this comes from studying my Alzheimer's students as they work. I think about all they have seen and loved.

I am also caught by the photos of my family when they were very young.  A theme is emerging: loss, love, where we stand, how we fade.

I am groping, watching how the materials work and the images change.
