Installation complete
First and foremost I want to thank the Carnegie public library in Angola, Indiana for their awesome opportunity. They have a wonderful area for showing. They allow it to run for a month. They had a place card for my business cards and two clear stands for my artisan statement. The Stuben Art Scene generously… Read more

Experiment on orb
I decided to see what would happen when I wet the felted orb then paint acrylic paint on it before embellishing on it. I wanted it to bleed a little then have paint on top. We shall see how it ends up once it is dry and embellished. Read more

Dot, Dot, Dot
Using variegated yarn in purple, pinks, lime green and deep fuchsia colors and adding raised pieces before felting that gave hills and valleys after felting.

Avocado orb and stand
I don’t think I gave this enough love in my orb- it photos. This was stepping up in adding a different way to ensure that the orb had a place to sit freely. When it did it became more avocado/cactus like. I appreciate the road this one took me down. A nod to #Jennyking for… Read more

Orb being a challenge
This one almost didn’t make it. The felting was clumsy and did not felt as deeply as it usually does not even after a second try. I decided to crochet navy blue thread and variegated thread to see if that could tie it together. It helped tremendously so am moving onto the addition of beading.… Read more
