Getting Organized...

Was getting organized yesterday for some upcoming submissions.  I'll be submitting for 6x6, the INTFF 2011 Challenge (for which I need to write something up describing it, and which I can't show you until after it's published!), and Peace Felt.  And starting to get piles of things together for Elegance in April. 

Neal worked on his ship and put together a couple of display easels for me for EinA.  And Donna came by to work on some charity items for her crochet group.

I was noodling around with some roulags of wool, and had a glimmer of an idea on a possible piece using them.

So really, the studio looks like a wreck, but there is some method to my madness!

Moon Kissed is done...

"And still of a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,


When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,

When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,

A highwayman comes riding— "

-  Alfred Noyes, The Highwayman
 
 

 

It's hard to tell in the photos, but the tree branches reach forward, out to the viewer.

 

This piece will be submitted to the Danforth Museum's Off the Wall juried show.  I'm hoping that they can see the dimensionality in the 3MB file.

Anticipation...

Looking forward to a day at the studio tomorrow!

My sister's coming by to work on her jewelry (she'll be at Elegance in April with me on the 30th at St. George's in Framingham), and I'll be photographing stuff for various submissions and finishing up Moon Kissed.

I'm thinking of submitting Moon Kissed (and two others) to the Danforth Off the Wall juried show this year.  It was so fantastic to be juried into last year's show and such a great experience, that I want to do it again!
