I love chrysanthemums. Must get sketching.

sketchbook

Wish you were here (blue)

I participated in The Sketchbook Project through Art House Co-op and "post card" was my assigned theme. I made a series of flower line drawings, then made gocco prints on rice paper. These were sewn on each of the pages. Some were left blank, with one petal colored in. I want to make more individual post cards and also experiment with handwriting, rather than relying on a computer font.

WIP

It wasn't the best of years. Challenges and change would sum it up. But change can be good as well as bad. I moved into a new studio. I participated in two Open Studios, four art shows and curated one. I have ideas and things in the works for 2010. Hey ho, let's go.

A day in the studio with my serger and a stash of wool and cashmere sweaters I've had for years.

Terrifying knit baby

When life intervenes, making you languid and noodle-like

Topographies

and you don't work for the better part of the month,

Flowers, mailing list + postcards

even though you know something big is just around the corner.

Knit Lights

You might be tempted to think, "Oh I'll just coast, show some old work. No problem."

Spleens on (didactic) display

Then something happens.

Cervixes in a Box

And there will be late nights, talking yourself down from the possibilities.

The pile o' cervixes grows

It hasn't been a very productive time. I am still working on my pile of cervixes and thinking of ways to expand the project. Something for next year, it still seems so far away.

Now don't get excited
Oh ignored blog let's kiss and make up. I'll post a picture and write some words. For example, last weekend was all about AltCraft at the American Craft Council Show - a truly amazing experience where I met many incredible people. More, soon.
