After changing out a bunch of things, I think he's ready for some background glass. I'm still thinking about the bottom of his left ear though...
Lots going on in the studio at the moment, none of which is any where near completion.
This shows you my desk this morning where I have decorated scraps of paper and fabric with various art mediums.The piece at the top on the right is one I made using the ideas of Anne Bagby. I collaged various lightweight paper on to a tissue backing and then overprinted and painted this.
These papers and fabric are destined to be chopped up and used in a variety of ways.
I've added the squares to a glittery background and then backed it with fleece and I will be stitching over the squares to hold them down
Mozaique was fascinated by the tree last night! The photo sucks, because I grabbed the closest camera which was my cell phone to make sure I wouldn't miss the shot. Real life scrapbooking! LOL
STROBIST: SB-800 rear right the object, camera flash for slave.
Pardon, I'm really NOT a still lifer: for better works see The King of Lights stream.
Chiedo scusa, non sono uno still lifer: se volete vedere molto di meglio guardatevi lo stream del King of Lights.
My current project. I'm just adding bits as I go along with minimal planning. Something I can do in front of the TV!
I decided to have a bit of fun and make a wacky handbag. This is the first stage.
I went to a scrummy shop in Much Wenlock ( Ippkin... www.ippkin.co.uk) and bought some Colinette yarn ( www.colinette.com) and a shell button in a wonderful deep yellow colour.
I then used a pair of 20 mm needles to losely knit a rectangle, which I will now weave with strips of knotted fabric and other strange things.
Watch this space!

A snowy day which I spent in the studio decorating fabric and paper.
This piece of newspaper was underneath the fabric to protect the table whilst i was painting.
I used it to stitch into and then crumpled and rubbed it until it shrunk

I was initally excited about stitching up this lady. Now I am mad at her. Perhaps it was the changes I made? Maybe I shouldn't have given her cleavage, or changed her head covering into hair? Maybe I need to shut up and just keep stitching until she looks nice.
To finish him up - sew the red buttons on the hat to make a flower, sew the hat onto the head, sew the head onto the body.

Underneath all those paper scraps are my angry, stressed-out words.
Made for Dawn Sokol's Art Journal Stimulus Project. (www.dblogala.com/)
mixed media collage works, in acrylic. I have been burning it up lately, and these are stages of works in progress. eventually i want to make time lapse gifs.
this painting lasted a little over a week on the gallery walls before someone bought it.
This is a return to previous work that begins with a single, large, pinch pot that is closed and joined at the rim, forming a kidney-shaped balloon. As the piece approaches the leather-hard stage, the whistle/fipple parts are assembled and the tail (tale) is appended to the opposite end.
With the smaller tone chamber, achieving a solid tone and cutting the four holes for fingering is much easier than the larger, upright pieces of recent work.
I need to put some thought into how this type of instrument could be displayed...perhaps from some sort of companion-piece, plate/peg design on the wall.
I have now stitched two sheets of Polish newspaper in a random grid pattern. After stitching I rubbed the paper for a while to shrink it and to break down the surface. This means that it will accept paint more readily.
getting ready to tie in another thread & work the 4th pass, then the beaded band will be rolled together and woven into a round rope
some beads for another project have started sneaking onto my work tray (pretty pink porcelain donut)
BUT now i'm going to crochet, I think I will finish my green scarf today. I don't feel any real urgency to finish this beadwork, just enjoying the process, very zen.
The start of a new project.
There is a process which is inevitable.
This is:
The sorting of the threads.
The cleaning of the sewing machine.
The winding of the bobbins.
The clearing of the work table.
And finally, the thorough washing of the spectacles!
A very rare day alone, which I am setting aside for stitching and gardening. More of the former I hope.
