~~ Hello! Welcome to my art blog. Where I blog about art ( just a little redundancy there for you :) and maybe a few other things here and there. My name is Catherine :) I am the KrEative GatHerER! At least, I'd like to think so. I am for the most part, a self taught "Artist". My goal is to someday feel, at least, adequate enough for the tile of Artist! In the meantime, I love coffee , tea, wine ( yes in that order ) and to submerge myself in my Art! I do mean that literally. It can be quite messy at times. ~~

Seattle winter snow storm of 2012

Earlier this month, I was feeling greatly deprived of our lack of snow out here in Western Washington.  Not only did we receive snow, it turned into an ice storm.  We haven't had anything like this since 1996.  Many thousands of people were left without power ( my husband and I included ).  Even now, many are still without power.  This ice storm led to many winter woes!  Between my house and my mothers house which is only a very small five minute drive.  Fifteen trees had come crashing down across the road.  At night, it was very strange to hear trees falling and snapping and crashing due to all the ice that was in cased around them. 


The best part, some of the photos I was able to take! 




There was ice everywhere.  Still, we have a lot of ice.  I am surprised how long it is taking to melt.




This storm created some extremely intriguing ice formations.





I just had to post this one.  My very curious cat Sir. Earl Grey sitting on the window sill staring up and facinated by the snow that was falling.
