new Print



I still can't decide whether I like this print best with just three colors or with a fourth.  If so, What color the fourth should be. Hmmmm...

Screen print in progress


I have two colors done and two to go.  It has been slow going cause I had to wash out the screens and start completely over.  Perfection takes much longer but it is way more satisfying  in the end.

Sculpture is coming onlong



It feels slow going.  So many little parts that have to be cut out, shaped, and glued in.  Not to mention the battle wounds of blistering burns from the glue gun.

Studio Violet

This wonderful picture comes from that talented female duo Elisabeth Dunker and Camilla Engman over at Studio Violet.  They made these amazing dish sets from reused porcelain.

inspiration




Pia Jane Bijkerk has that amazing bohemian existence that I dream of.  She lives between Amsterdam, Paris, and Sydney.  How amazing is that!  Check out her blog.  It's full of amazing pictures and ideas.

Progress


This weekend I figured out the trick to screenprinting.  It took me a couple tries working with the screen filler and fluid mask because I'm teaching myself.  But a little soap and water cleans the screen and I like mistakes when I'm learning so that I know how much is too much or too little.  I also made this cool drying thing with some wire and clips so that I can dry lots at a time with little space.
