i have dry hands and a cat cut the webbing between two fingers. the little pool of blood looked like watercolor and was evenly coated, you couldn't see the source.

at the craft fair candice martin had stunning ceramic bowls that had elements that looked basket woven and red centers. she shared her commercial glaze/mason stain recipe with me.

i was barely able to finish the weaving with the reds i had. it ended up being a perfect amount of weft.

i bought a little right red antelope with black spots. all his parts come out because he's hand carved and fragile for traveling. he looks alien without ears horns or a tail.

its not that i don't like other reds. except the really wrong one which hurts my eyes to see.

I have always used this color as an small accent in larger colorful setups. It is interesting to focus on this color as the main component of my weaving with other colors acting as the accent.

at the tobasco farm, the seasonal workers carry around a little red dowel— le petite baton rouge — to check to make sure the peppers are ripe enough.
