Finding myself all caught up in totally new terrain has been frustrating yet stimulating, unhinging yet grounding. In a wee winter nutshell: inspiring! My new Paper Clone had to be fun, difficult and unusual. I had a picture in my mind. My pencils had another at their tips.

This year the "party mission" grew in difficulty: number one daughter has now reached the grand old age of tweenhood... Totally unsure in how to proceed, I turned to what I know best and where many of my problems and solutions lie: art. Success: the Kunstmuseum in Bonn organises a number of different (fantastic) birthday workshops! Having Max Ernst  (1891-1976) turn up (well his legacy ) and lend his ever trendy talented approach to surrealism and art was magic. The girls rolled up their sleeves, got chatting & laughing.
