Soon to be covered in a mosaic.
The next 3 art festivels that I will be in are of my photography. So I thought I would make a side table to put my business cards and postcards on. This way I can show people what they can look forward to seeing from me.
I'm also making a sign with my name on it to hang in the booth. Still working on the design for that.
How long does it take to form. tune, and decorate an ocarina of this size? The answer is probably, "Too long to ever recover the time invested". Ultimately, the additional time to bisque fire, glaze, glaze fire (repeatedly) will put the pricing of higher quality pieces out of reach...which is cause for reflecting upon the question, "Why do you really do this?"
second darkroom print. this one was burned for 55 sec. still did not achieve the contrast and dark shadows o was hopping for.
Grease Alley, an industrial backwater neighborhood in a blade-runner/fifth-element genre. These shops back onto a trash and old parts-strewn gully, where the junk skiff comes by to pick up broken components, industrial leftovers, and the occasional "borrowed" part.
already finished snap fitting the kit. the only part left is some of gaplant shield and weapons. was planning to spray paint this kit, but lately, i think it a waste of paint. better paint MGs kit. but i wont let this kit like this. will touch dis up with gundam marker, panel inking and probably will seal it with flat top coat.
I'm trying a variety of products in an attempt to both age an ink jet image and to make it look "misty".
I am drawn to the look produced using encaustic wax, but the health hazards make me cautious about heating wax without effective ventilation.
Anyone interested in using cold wax might like to look at oilandwax.ning.com/ for helpful advice.
My objective is to use images that look as though they are memories of the past and I have to say that everything I have tried so far is a disapointment.
I hope to look into using resin next.

Patchwork furoshiki bag - bit of a work in progress as I'm testing the seams with all detritus of daily life!

Still need to figure out how to illustrate the string going up over the pulley and down around the axle...
Yesterday I was home alone and listened to my audiobook, as I pieced this together - it is odd and uneven and and strange and totally without a theme and it sort of just happened...
well, at least it is colourful! :-)
I don't know if it is going to be a baby blanket again; I might chop it up into strips and sew them together with some other fabric... maybe I'll just keep this one going without a plan whatsoever.... it will turn into something at some point, I guess?!
perm. marker & acrylic
I'm hoping to work on this one a bit more today - upload photos of it this evening. I'd much rather paint than sleep.
WORK IN PROGRESS
8x8" Getting there on little Oscar. I am not following his colors exactly since I don't have his exact shade, so kind of doing my own thing.
