Helping Animals Helps People

http://drupal.animalrefugekansai.org/?q=en/node/11

Here is a link to an animal shelter that will be taking in the animals displaced by the tsunami in Japan. Many humans are unable to keep their pets with them in evacuation shelters, so this is a way to help the animals and their human compantions.

I will keep looking for links to update this entry.

I'm Not Alone! "My Owl Barn" Blog

I have fallen in love with this blog! I spent a good chunk of last night and much of this morning exploring the selections and the links to products, crafts and tutorials. Check it out!!

I look forward to more posts from this blog. Maybe one day I'll be the subject of one!

I sense a new goal for Schnik!

Snow Day!

I have an unexpected day off! The roads are slick, the stairs are treacherous and I can't do anything outside the house!

This morning my husband and I took a walk around the neighbourhood to enjoy the rare snowfall and take some pictures of this event.  

My husband shoveled and salted the main stairs. We measured the snow fall. At nine am it was about eight and a half inches of accumulation.

Time to break out the clay and work on some new pieces!

Facebook Fan Page

Have you had a chance to check the Schnik Facebook Fan Page out?

The Facebook page has many more pictures of my work and is, in my opinion, easier to work with.

Have a visit!

Gammapunk

Steampunk relies on the power of steam. In my vision of this heart, the power source is radioactive, a la Madame Curie. Certain veins and ventricles, the radioactively powered bits, glow in low light.

Get your RAD detector out for GammaPunk!

New Banner

I had an idea to have a themed banner for the month of February. Being the month of Valentine and other such "lovery dovery", I decided to make a heart themed banner for the blog.

Feedback, as always, is welcome.
