My father's F.P.I. horse hair desk brush and paper weight from his patent drafting career. The paper weight is one of a few he made and the brush features a twine job he did on the handle. After that much effort it makes sense to mark the items with your initials.

I know almost nothing about photographing moving subjects, so attempting to do justice with my camera to these gorgeous animals who are constantly moving is a whole new world for me. Using the right settings would help, lol! So much to learn!

This is an early "first draft" version of the Vector starfighter.
Although the finished fighter came out very different, I did carry over the nose section as the twin hulls of the Vector.

Lady Of The Wood, 2009 David Walker
Lady of the wood was inspired by a gift- a pile of wood veneer from which the first draft was made. The goal was to see how a garment made only of wood could replicate a 17th-century ball gown.
The lacewood bodice is made from an original pattern modified to fit the material. The Mahogany sleeves were bent with steam and finished with a lacewood cuff. The skirt is an oval pannier made with two cedar hoops supported from a mahogany belt which is covered with 52 stripped mahogany and maple veneer strips.
MOPOP (Museum Of Pop Culture in Seattle, WA) had this and 31 other garments on display as part of the WOW (World Of Wearable art) Exhibition.
WOW is now being packed up and will be heading to the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA opening Feb 18th.
From the official WOW website:
One of New Zealand’s cultural success stories over the past 28 years is the spectacular World of WearableArt® or WOW®. At the core of WOW® is an international design competition that attracts hundreds of entries from all over the world. The annual Awards Show presents the finalist garments in a theatrical extravaganza that collides at the intersection of fashion and art.
This unique event draws an audience to Wellington of 55,000 people every year and has encouraged an explosion of creative activity, inspiring a wide range of fashion designers, artists, costume-makers and other to enter the World of WearableArt® Awards.
The range of garments produced for the event is simply breath-taking, as the rules of competition mean that anything that is in any way wearable can find a place on stage, as long as it is original, beautifully designed and well-made. This also results in garments that are constructed from an extraordinary array of materials.
WOW®, in partnership with the New Zealand Government, is presenting an international touring exhibition that showcases the very best of the WOW® permanent collection.
