Starting with my picture I drew (in College) of a lady with fish. I know it SEEMS like I’m not around, but I am. This weekend, I reorganized my side bar and at the top you will see a link to my gallery…the gallery is in Flash, so if you don’t have that installed, you’ll have issues! 🙂 However, I did this mostly for me.
I think I have mentioned (not sure how recently tho) that I was a fine art major who strayed away from what I was doing for 10 years. I created absolutely nothing in that time. About 3 and a half years ago (really what prompted this blog) I dug out my Grandmother’s crazy quilt and began my exploration into needlework. This exploration started on the web with many websites and great inspiration in the crazy quilt world. This year I have begun exploring other avenues of needle arts…none that has quite “fit”. So, I decided a retrospective of everything I have around the house that I have created…including a couple from High School (not going to say how long ago that was!), would help me find my authentic creative self. This means digging out drawings, photographs and other interesting things (woodcuts, etc).
So, with it all up, I do have some insights…of what I liked to do, what I love to do now and interestingly an answer to why I dumped it for so long! Anyway, more later…..
I also had a comment on a post from Pam Rubert about the picture 2 posts ago and here’s another of the same sculpture area:
Unfortunately, this wasn’t IN Missouri (wave Hi to Pam!…should have figured out a way to drive past your studio!), but on our trip along Highway 50 in the south West part of Kansas…I believe just west of Greensburg (Home of The Big Well) and before you get to Dodge City. Just a total hole in the wall town except for all this great sculpture! I’ll have to go back and get an exact town location or maybe someone will recognize it!
