…days 51 to 53

Drawing figures from pieces of collage randomly glued onto the page

After reading the book The Dictionary of Lost Words I was inspired to create a double spread of collage and sketches that highlight some of the themes from Pip Williams’ book. The novel covers the making of the Oxford dictionary, protests by the suffragettes, World War 1, women as second class citizens, birth, death and romance.

Making and Selling Bread

…every week at Montgomery’s Inn

Every Wednesday I volunteer at the Inn making bread that is sold at the Farmers’ Market. On Tuesday I go in and prep the dough that proofs overnight in the fridge. Wednesday morning we shape the dough, heat up the outdoor wood burning oven and bake 40 to 75 loaves of bread.
