About

I am a Canadian artist in Calgary, Alberta, working primarily with textiles. I'm curious, eccentric and just a little opinionated. Surrealist in thought, Fauvist at heart, this is my almost daily art journal, eccentric and eclectic, explorative and absurd.

last Cyber Fyber teaser and some planning

I won't show anymore until i can show the whole thing. It's almost ready to be mounted and sent off to Susan!

And i have already decided how i am going to make this in textiles---not sure if it will be a "flat" or a 3d piece:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are 5 people now "signed up" for my tutorial blog--you can't read it unless you are invited/interested in the tutes!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here is/are the last days works at the flower mines:

We had a HUGE dump of snow yesterday and it's beautiful. The trees are all different, some clumped and juicy with huge puffs, some lacey and delicate, some bowed down and looking like meringue. Soon enough i'll be tired of it, but for now it's magic!

I adore orchids...back in the day they were the flower DH bought for me most often.
Wow...the more teasers I see of your Cyber piece the more intrigued I am. Don't you dare be worried about sending it because it's absolutely dripping with fabulousness!!
