Work-in-Progress (19.dec.07)

19 December 2007

Much progress has been made on the House of Myth­i­cal Crea­tures. None of which is vis­i­ble in the photo. I’m think­ing that I need to build some sort of press for hold­ing the pan­els flat while they dry. Also I noticed after how many weeks? (5, I think) that there is a typo in one of […]

Work-in-Progress (10.dec.07)

10 December 2007

Been busy get­ting the house sorted. But I man­aged a cou­ple of hours here and there last week. This is the result. Three of the back­grounds for the house of myth­i­cal crea­tures. You’ll notice that none of the red and orange painted paper that I first put on the card stock cut-outs can been seen. […]

Work-In-Progress (26.nov.07)

27 November 2007

Still work­ing on the flow­ers gothic arch. It now has birds on it. I have a pic­ture of my great grand­mother that I think will go in the cen­ter. I have a new gothic arch started. The back­ground is torn papers coated with a wash of gel medium to get it all stuck down. I […]

27 November 2007

Stenciling the Laundry Room

13 November 2007

I did this last month. (in one day) I made about 20 test runs on white butcher paper to find just the right color com­bi­na­tion. And set­tled on this: And here’s all the stuff it took to get the paint onto the wall. The sten­cil is from Trim­belle River Stu­dios. The room doesn’t have much in the way […]

I’m try­ing to be bet­ter about keep­ing notes as I go along. (Click the thumb­nails forf ull size images.) 2 Gothic Arches pieces that are on my table at the moment. Poetry-Toads. The back­ground is made up of pat­tern tis­sue and a fac­sim­ile of the first page of an old edi­tion of Pride and Prejudice. […]

Hand Recursive and Finger Hat.

13 November 2007

Slack­ing on the income earn­ing front and doing art instead. Two com­pleted pieces: Hand recur­sive. I fin­ished this one a cou­ple of weeks ago. It was my first try in this shape. Fin­ger Hat A 4X4 on heavy water­color paper. Images from needle­work mag­a­zines, but­tons from heaven only knows where and a bit of type from my […]

Gather Socks

6 November 2007

Start­ing off with a lit­tle project that I finally fin­ished. The Gather socks. I started these in August and fin­ished them in Octo­ber — not bad for me. I bought the yarn (and nee­dles) from Cir­cle of Yarns in Kala­math Falls OR on the way to Eagle Lake, CA for the16th Annual Pacific North­west Dry­side Gather. […]
