By the end of winter, I have a serious case of cabin fever. I have stared at the same walls for months, feeling cooped up and claustrophobic. Something new that I did these year was to start taking pictures of the ordinary things around my apartment. Somehow, taking a pen and dictionary and turning them into art makes me feel much less cooped up.

Click on the mosaic below to go to my “Things Around the House” collection on Flickr and see what I’ve been seeing all winter.

I am grateful for digital cameras and still subjects.
