How it was, and Is.

Hello everyone.  The show opening went well!  It is easier to talk about my work in my imagination than it is in reality, but this was an opportunity to practice.  There were many artists in the show and each one brought 2 food items, so there was interesting delicious food and a lovely band.  My friend Marge graciously took these photos, as I was so occupied with talking.  Here are the 4 pictures I contributed:

This one is called "Too Much Phone":

Lately I've been sitting outside on my back porch at sunset time, listening to the birds and maybe working...this is the tree behind my studio at this time...someone told me this light is called 'alpenglow'...I love that word, even though I am nowhere near the Alps...

And then this...a minute later:

And lastly, here is Zoe, in her basket...she is visiting for a short while.  She's 15 and very sprightly, although you wouldn't necessarily know it from this picture:

That's all for now...may tax-time tax you lightly...xoxo...

Overnight guest

Hello everyone.  Things have been a little busy around here...Agnes' friend Zoe came over for an experimental sleepover, to see if they would be compatible for a longer stay.  Agnes did a little growling, but overall it was a positive experience...here is a preliminary sniff...

I did go to see some of the Lunar New Year festivities at the Community Center.  The Chinese after-school program had some wonderful performances...the room was packed...

Here's my first experimental "weaving without a foundation" for Jude's Contemporary Boro Weaving class.  We are learning many intriguing new techniques.

Have also been continuing to needle-felt.  This one is called "Bumped":

That's all for now!
