The bamboo plant has many uses: building material, mats, furniture, paper and writing utensils, among others. It is a hardy plant that grows quickly in the right conditions. Pandas eat them almost exclusively. It is one of the Chinese 'Four Treasures'.

Admin Post: New art e-book now available from Smashwords.com

"Women in Color" celebrates women in paint, pen, and pastel. I collected some of my favorite paintings and drawings of strong heroines. Soldiers, mothers, dancers...girls can grow up to be anyone they want, no matter what color, creed or race they are. Each piece of artwork is accompanied by a short commentary outlining the creative processes behind it. 

Here's the link: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/109808 and it's $1.25 to download.
