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.

"Make It" Calgary

I didn't know there was one of this kind of show here!!!!!! NEXT YEAR!!!!

I'm still "digesting" last night's experience at Art Central! I have a few photos that are postable (the lighting was too dramatic for my camera), some exposure to new artists and their work, millions of ideas and possible connections to be gelled.

Were you totally inspired? Millions of ideas? I did pick up on the drive of the students and them stretching their horizons. Dee? did say they have pushed limits... their own maybe but not what has gone on before. I know they are students but they are students not school kids. I found Gateway college Leics utube video... these are school kids http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9339t_GNK_8&feature=fvw (I do have other stuff to compare it to) I really think that what was missing was detail - but who am I to comment? Perhaps they just don't get enough exposure to the world of wearable art which is strange in this www world we live in. I don't meant to put it down - totally they did work hard and came through...and, if I can help, I will. Eg., Check out http://www.worldofwearableart.com/ for Even More inspiration (most of the folks who submit are just like you and me... others are professional, some are kids... look at the winners section....Arlee.
