The Snowmen have arrived.

Guelph Tribune Article

This is the blog for me, Dawn Matheson. I live in Guelph, Ontario, Canada.

Basically, I intend to discuss my projects, past and present, plus other people’s projects and things in general that come into the light.

Jim, my neighbour, who I met through my cat, is the web designer. I’ll tell the cat story soon. It is a goody. But a sad goody as kitty is no more. 

Above I posted a link to my latest project called Project: Snowman. I’ve decided to premise all my project titles from here on in with: Project colon. Nice and clear. Project: Snowman is explained in the little article above… better than I can explain it here.

I came up with Project: Lucy today for NuitBlanche. Let’s hope it lives. 

Need to have a bath now, but this hasn’t been too bad.

Now to figure out how to post photos. Jim? Meow?

  2. hi guys! neighbours, dawn and jimmers!!! (ps the script is too small – i almost couldn’t find how to leave a comment – xxx!)

    Dawn! i love this! and i even have snowmen envy, because i think they are magical yet i have no stories. i vaguely remember making one once and loving it that i pretty much was too young to do much for, but wow the characters that i am realizing they all have, like carved pumpkins for halloween – anyway, maybe in my past life i built and saw lots of snowmen. cause i certainly think they are amazing…
    all i can really add here is snowangels. – those were big for me. body and most impressively for distorted sound quality, head in snow – whisking snowsuit to limbs’ furthest reaches and extensions, fluffing snow under nylon, fast and slow. … some of them were beautiful, i thought, usually the ones where you didn’t stay too long or add too much weight.

    but,
    the head-under-hat-in-snowdrift, amidst fresh-snow… brushing against this odd-ancient, this wonderful pillowy plaything, snow…
    (wonderful)
