proof that I was working on -something- when up in Canada. I remade Lloyd completely. Again. Here's the belt made of "elephant skin" that was also the appliqué and sides for his tunic, with over-sized suede piping...all of this will be painted and glossed to match the belt circle and cape armor afterwards.
I have created a new account so I don't bore people with my documentary photos of life in the sweatshop.
Please add this account as a contact if you like seeing these pictures. ;)
Tarot card is the Wheel of Fortune from the Shadowscapes deck. It's a very significant card for me. My colors won't be identical to the card as yellow won't show up too well on my olive skin.

Initial make-up preview, just to show her progress... the colors will receive more layering, and she's wearing my Cappuccino Chat's scalp and eyemech... your girl will get some different lashes.
These things are still kicking around. (I'm trying to remember what piece these even are.) Every so often, I pull out a random piece of unfinished armor and paint a little bit more on it. I guess that makes me feel better about taking...like year-long breaks in between. ^_^;
I decided to knit my husband a pair of socks for Christmas. I'm following a really interesting pattern I found in "Andean Folk Knits," a beautiful book I checked out of the library.
I splurged a little on yarn: I'm using Cascade Dolce, which is dreamy-dreamy-dreamy. He's worth it :)
Socks look so neat in progress!! Here, I've just finished turning the heel.
This is both my first attempt at socks AND my first attempt at colorwork. So please forgive the lumpy cuff. Speaking of the cuff, it's knitted with a hem that's stitched down later. A row of eyelet stitch between the hem and cuff creates a picot edge. Nifty!
I haven't decided if I'm going to bother with a design on the front -- there's no sense putting a zodiac sign as suggested in the Knitty pattern because it's very up in the air whether this baby will be a Scorpio or a Sagittarius.
test spray in progress...part of my next series of work, ten 10x10" panels for Gallery Atsui's annual 10x10 exhibit.

I'm lucky that my roommate doesn't mind that I often take up our kitchen table and use it as my workspace. I have a desk, but no desk chair. And our kitchen is kind of perfect.
..And yes, those ARE two keys missing from my keyboard. My fault.
Getting ready to sculpt a face!

I'm trying to keep in mind all of the companion planting rules. Any suggestions are welcome. The plot is about 8 x 15 feet - perhaps a bit wider... and longer... because I keep enlarging it little by little each year.
When I was making George last week I took a few photos of him while he was still unfinished. Here's a glimpse of my pattern-writing style, and my awesome SpongeBob pencil.
Hace tiempo que vi el tutorial de Page McNall por flickr, y me apetecía probarlo. Por ahora las piezas estan sin acabar, pero es una forma fácil y sencilla para hacer cuentas huecas.
