Saturday, March 8, 2008Woo Woo! Here's a change from snow pictures!  The daffies are back! They never fail me. My daughter planted these before she left home and they come up every spring with a few more there. The other bed are the ones from my Mom and they are also sprouting, tho I need to get out there and dig out some blackberries, too.Sun is shinning and the snow is melting rapidly. It's 58 degrees, a lovely warm nearly spring day! Randy and I are working in the loom shop and raking and pruning by turns. Hope you are enjoying your weekend, too. posted @ 02:12 PM PST [link] Wednesday, March 5, 2008Well, it's not fiber but... I think she turned out so well that I just had to share. This was what I did in class today. We're doing figures and portraits and I'm having a great time with it. For my homework this time I did a Martha Steward mask that was a big hit!  They want me to put it into the Class show at the Highlands in June. It was a gag really, for a remark our instructor made earlier but... hey! We can all use a MS mask now and then! Anywho, I really like this long legged mahogany haired lady.And I am still working on The Project.

That's the loom Randy made from the walnut tree that got washed out in the '97 flood. I titled it "My Loom Contemplating It's Place In The Cosmos" The Big one is called "Application of Theory" ; "Yarns handspun by Hazel, the other by Rumpelstiltskin". The other is gold colored wire with silver beads strung randomly on it. I don't know if anyone will pay my exorbitant prices but my fellow classmates liked them! That's what counts, huh? If you can impress your fellow artists, it doesnt matter if it doesn't sell! Well, I don't think any (many?) of us here really do this to sell, we just enjoy sharing. When I get a bit further along with my Other Project I'll post a photo here. That's the one hinted at in the previous post.posted @ 03:25 PM PST [link] |
