To celebrate the end of our first year as adjunct instructors and the beginning of our summer in the studio, Ian and I embarked on a short camping trip to Spring Mill State Park. Just a drive north of us in Indiana, this park has some mellow campsites, beavers, beautiful (and perfectly plastic) roadside clay deposits, and a gorgeous pioneer village. The last of which I always enjoy due mostly in part to the hand-crafted quality of the architecture and artifacts - all of which document such rich studies in texture, line, and history.
