Doing a status check on Ugly City. I've got 11 of the 20 center squares pieced, and the other 9 mostly pieced. I'm trying to keep from finishing this too quickly, actually, because I'm really enjoying working on it.

Fire's riding to valleys of death
while shadows are rising from bloody hells
Fire's riding to Hargor, the town
where evil and terror conquered the clouds
We sing to the wind the legend of the kings
to spread our heart to the kingdom of dusk
where heroes are lost, where now reigns the Shadow Lord!

Quick WIP shot of my current project for Losthaven.
Day 2 of the children being back at school and I was happy to get an hour in at the sewing machine after a very long time away. This is a sneak peek at a new project.

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.
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.
