Sasha's Summer Dessert

Here are some desserts that my daughter put together, from her garden, at her Grandmother's house.
She is growing raspberries, carrots, kale, and a few other things that I might have forgotten.

Private Students

Here, a few pictures of some of my private students.

I love the noisy picture of Brian, on the bottom.

The graininess is my favorite!

Street Musicians

Almost 6 months, between posts!

Plenty of private students later- a new post!

Two scenes of street musicians, getting ready to play.

The first picture, is of some jazz players, in Central Park.

The second, is of a steel band preparing to play on a closed off street.

The Pliot Plumix

This is my new Pilot Plumix!
A refillable fountain pen, with a "Music" nib.
This "nib", or slit/point, was designed for those writing/copying music on manuscript paper.
If you are completely new to fountain pens, using the Plumix, will take some getting used to.
Take some time to practice the way to hold the pen and produce proper strokes.
I took to copying a calligraphy alphabet, to learn the correct angles of writing.
I'm hooked, and not sure I can go back to ball/roller points, ever again!!!
Fountain pens are elegant, and they force you to take writing seriously!
