Bright & Shiny

A work in progress, dispatches from an isolated assemblage/textile artist who flirts with OCD. Read me rant and rave about my attempts to exhibit, teach, and administers all things arty farty.

Images of Sexpots

Here are two images of Sexpot Icons that I sent off to Lark Books for my first stab at a book submission. It was a totally eleventh hour thing I did this weekend . . . these are about 10" in height, and have the shrinky dink painting on them. I actually sent them two sexpots and I hope I get them back!




Also, been working on the Al Smith Fellowship stuff for the Kentucky Arts Council. It really pushed me to finish up the "You Made Your Bed" piece below - the height is 20". I'm happy it's done.




What else - setting up high school art now - Pattern and Decoration came down, and the visiting artist Yoko Sekino-Bove was absolutely delightful, not to mention an amazing ceramist. She even traded me a piece, which was my favorite in the exhibition (I LOVE MY JOB!).

I'm starting to small pieces and actually am going to start to work on a piece that will be an altar that has a painting in it, artificial flowers nailed around the edges and dangling skeleton parts hanging around the edge - it's called "Rites of Spring". Something different - which I need because for some reason I'm BURNT OUT on the textiles.

Oh - and watch for the sky to fall now - I CLEANED MY STUDIO!!!!!!!
