Summer is here — the kind that smells of mangoes, sunscreen, and a hint of salt in the air! With schools shut and the summer break in full swing, our days have taken on a whole new rhythm. Every morning, I’m up at 4:45 AM (yes, really!) to take my son to the beach for his athletics training from 6 to 7. We leave the house by 5, bleary-eyed but determined. And you know what? The reward is totally worth it — a front-row seat to the most glorious sunrise, right at 6 AM, painting the sky in fiery oranges and soft pinks. It never gets old.
After that burst of energy and beauty in the mornings, I settle into a slower, more meditative space for the day at my studio. I’ve been exploring a new tangle called COOFIA, introduced at ZenAgain. It’s a fun, flowing organic tangle with so many possibilities. Here, I’ve played with it on a tan tile, letting the natural tones enhance the softness of the design. Just a touch of color — enough to make it pop.
Sunrises, sand, and tangles — that's my story this summer. What's yours?
