Woodworking is a love/hate relationship at my studio. I need to create using wood in order to help display other works, but really lack confidence and tool know how. My father is a good wood crafter, producing furniture, building houses & cabinetry, but I have not yet taken advantage of his knowledge (and he’s 84Continue reading “Moving towards new products…”

Luminaria for Friends
Back in October, our friend Shannon married her partner Megan. Last month, they had a great celebration with family and friends at Downward Dog in Corvallis. Since the party I’ve been slowly working on completing a luminaria as a wedding gift for them. Shannon really likes yellow but I was not able to incorporate thatContinue reading “Luminaria for Friends”
Bringing in the pro!
I passed along a few dollars to one of our local photographers, Harold Wood, for some stunning images. Harold’s work is tops! Now I have images of the two works for the Ag show plus a stunning pix of my leaf coat from 2009.

Here are the photos of the finished projects. First is Journal Entry: February 1, 2011. Now the revision of A Walk in the Woods.
Forest Project Almost Complete
Oh, that deadline is fast approaching and I’ve been rather preoccupied by illness, new dog and other stuff. So I did decide to add on six additional squares to “A Walk in the Woods: Discovery Loop Trail”. There was also another lamp in production but I’ve given up on completing it for now. There isContinue reading “Forest Project Almost Complete”
Forest Project Continued
With the initial “Walk in the Woods” project completed, gears are shifting to tackle the next. I’ve decided to approach the art through printmaking and cube construction. A total of 7+ cubes will be created, depending on time, and will relay a visual story of a hike through the forest during the month of February.Continue reading “Forest Project Continued”
A Walk in the Woods
“A Walk in the Woods” is looking finished for the Howland Community Open today. Only part lacking are two eye screws to hang from the wall/ceiling/window. I wonder if it will make it on the “curators wall”. That would be a big honor. Drop off time is between noon and 4pm Saturday January 29th. ThisContinue reading “A Walk in the Woods”
Filling in Squares
Progress has been slow but I might still make it for the Howland Community Open at The Arts Center in Corvallis. Today I found perfect screw eyes to connect the squares and clear hemlock for the frame. However, I’m realizing the screws purchased will not cover all the connections needed…. back to the hardware store!Continue reading “Filling in Squares”
