Monday's musing (and a photo)

On Mondays I’ll pass on something I’ve read or heard that has inspired me.  Listen to Julian Treasure talk about 5 simple ways to listen better. (As someone who is “hearing challenged” you can see why I loved it but there’s wisdom for all in this one!)  It is a TED talk and you can find it at http://www.ted.com/talks/julian_treasure_5_ways_to_listen_better.htmlAnd here's a photo of an "ammonite and Tibetan cloud texture plate" I am making with lino tools and an ezy carve printing block.  I love ammonites which can be found in some Himalayan rivers.  The clouds are similar to the ones painted in the Tibetan religious scrolls.  I'm interested to see how the block works out.
