It was so cold in my studio yesterday that I wore, besides my long johns and clothes, a sweater, a jacket, a hat and these fingerless gloves. It never really warmed up as the room is not airtight and the heat sucks out through all the gaps.

So I just puttered with a few things, then left. I began a shield out of scraps of patchwork paper left over from the robe. I had just enough to begin this small shield. Next I will paint it.

The hint of mountain painting has turned into a mountain painting. Not sure what else to do with this or if I've finished.
