STILL HERE

There's a saying about we live as long as we are remembered or loved. something like that. Hm-m-m Here is a new painting. From photographs by Cynthia Hickerson (1948 - 2009) of Geraldine (1919 - 2014) and Eldie. I don't know his statistics or even his last name. But he played a mean fiddle.

RING CURTAINS

Geraldine made many rings over the years. We strung them up with tapestry thread and bamboo curtains
and made wall hangings or curtains out of the rings. Some of the curtains have paper mache birds also.




She also made paper mache masks. She was good with paper mache and paint. We used a homemade recipe of rice flour paste, cook and stirred plus newspaper.
