Project #201
It’s actual name is the Brain Conversation #201. I find myself having lots of inner dialogs as I flesh out new concepts or work thru challenging projects. This particular piece has been in the works for several years. The invitation to participate in Corvallis Fall Festival’s Fine Arts Showcase during the month of September finallyContinue reading “Project #201”

Triangle Accordion Book Tutorial
I’m not a real book artist but have fun creating them from time to time. I also don’t use the proper terminology in explanations. LT in the UK inquired about some of the accordion book processes and I thought it was a great time to re-explore a past book design. Not every step is fullyContinue reading “Triangle Accordion Book Tutorial”
She Protected Them
The She Project rolled into action Friday night. This happened to be perfect, since I’d spent the day outside working in the yard, enjoying all the sunshine and colors. Dave didn’t get home until around 8:30 and by that time it was finished. This year my phrase was “She Protected Them”. This is what IContinue reading “She Protected Them”
Plankton Project: day 1
Saturday I sat down and went through photos online to start figuring out my approach to the sculpture. Today, Monday, I’m starting work on a form. The first focus is on zooplankton, mainly copepods. These little guys & gals scurry about through the water column consuming other critters and plants. Their body form looks likeContinue reading “Plankton Project: day 1”
Crumpled Paper
This is my first attempt with manipulating a single sheet of tracing paper into a sculptural form. I kind of remember doing this sort thing as a child but never more than a wadding and twisting forms to look like horses (I had a horse hang up as a young girl). Two years ago IContinue reading “Crumpled Paper”
What a week! Yikes!
Oh man, what a week! It was filled with drama, beauty, fun and icky stuff and I’m super glad it’s finished! This weeks highlights: Saturday Breakfast: Egg quesadilla with chicken, avocado and tomatillo salsa! Thanks Dave for the yummy creation without cheese! Saturday afternoon I worked for the Arts Center from noon to 5pm. TheContinue reading “What a week! Yikes!”
First order since December!
March has certainly started out on a good foot. I spent some time photographing more squirts (actually some of the Pulpos) and designed a new banner image for the Etsy site. When I uploaded the image I noticed some of the squirts were not listed. What the heck? How did Etsy screw up my listing?Continue reading “First order since December!”
