work in progress

after being sick for over a week, i have picked-up with my preparations for the American Craft Council retail show in Baltimore in February (22-24) - i'm trying to maintain perspective and my cool. as i mentioned before, i will be 1 of 15 artisans that will be featured in a special section called "New Wave Craft" - this is the very first year that they have created this section in the show. i'm not sure if that creates more or less pressure???

well anyway, i am really enjoying the process and am finding beauty within each step. i have the tendency to get caught-up in the serendipitous qualities of material in the process of becoming a product. as much as i care and take pride in the finished details, i equally am in love with the imagery and visual quality of things/moments that are created along the way.


i love the pattern left behind after sandblasting ... and the soft/fuzzy feel of my sandblasted acrylic pieces soaking in water ... and vibrantly wet. i tend to dwell and swoon and get lost in their calmness.....
