Open Studio distractions...

I have been busy doing lots of things getting ready for next weekend's Open Studio, but along the way one does get distracted...

I was mucking about with rust during the week and left some pieces on the outside table.  Life is full and busy and I didn't get back to them for a few days, and this is what I found...

Aren't they just the most sublime marks? "Etched" onto our plastic table, I think they are in fact a reward for bad behaviour!  I really should have cleaned up and tidied up well before I did; and yet, I feel as if this is a gift for not being very tidy!  See how easy it is for me to convince myself it's OK to be untidy at times? Laugh - but they are truly gorgeous.
