I feel like I've made some sort of artistic breakthrough in the last week . . . I don't know exactly what it is, but it has to do with grabbing a bunch of reallyexcellentstuff and not being afraid to use too much goodness in one piece, and then letting the colors flitting behind my eyelids have their way with this piece and not THINKING too much. Maybe crafting more by intuition?
Also, I've been feeling a distinctive primitiveantiquedpostapocalypse vibe on and off the past couple of weeks. I have a buncha elements that I've been working with, but not much that I've been able to put together on a finished piece yet.
And, if everything works out, I'm gonna do a show or two this summer! Wheeee! I've already gotten way too excited about creating my table display. I want to create a mood, an atmosphere, not just sling a buncha pieces on a white tablecloth. There will be lots of unfinished wood and blue-green glass bottles, exotic animal sculptures and rough, natural elements.
Preview of practice display!
Beautiful art, as always. A show? Explain!
ReplyDeleteA crafts fair! The Columbus Summer Avant-Garde Art & Craft Show, to be specific. I get a table and set up shop and people come by and say, "My, what lovely jewelry! I shall buy it all!" And then I am happy and can buy more beads. This is my plan.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by and becoming a follower. Do it all...why the heck not
ReplyDeleteMy plan to...just make money to buy more beads...junkie!
Yes! I keep on telling myself that I should be saving bead money, not spending it all on more beads . . . but I can't seem to do that yet. ;) I'm a bead junkie too.
