Landscapes to Wear

Landscapes to wear

I'm in that last minute race with the clock to create something new to sell at Sugarloaf. I suddenly had a brilliant idea but I don't have the energy or enough time (or supplies if they don't arrive UPS today!) Still, I think I have created something wonderful and I have 48 hours to produce enough to make an impression.

One thing I have learned is that rushing to create art or fine craft doesn't work. Ideas come often. Exploring and developing just one of them takes time... I'll breathe deeply and take my time! Back to the dye vats!

until next time

Create Beauty and fill the world with LOVE!

New lines at work!

My partner is out of town on business and I am missing him A LOT! (Although it is allowing me to create and explore new ideas continuously for a while.)

I am working today on a new scarf idea based on my landscapes and color palette. I will have new pictures this week-end I think. I am very excited about the possibilities. Will tell you more after I copyright it. But think earth, sky, land ,air, water. What color combinations would YOU use?

Until next time

For something totally different.

It's raining, we are having a wonderful spring thunderstorm. Today I am taking a mental health day and instead of painting I am making myself some new clothes to wear for Sugarloaf. Some Comfy casual pants and vests inspired by clothing from India. Until next time Create Beauty and fill the world with love. Wynn

Inspirations come in the most unexpected places....

Nebula No. 2 11" x 14" Oil Pastel on Paper matted/framed $225.00 While I am working to get stuff ready for Sugarloaf I thought I'd post a painting different from what I usually do. A Client who recently bought a painting of mine e-mailed me to say her husband is a space buff. So I pulled out some paintings from a series I started last year including this one. the paintings were inspired by photos taken by the Hubble space telescope. I've entitled them "The Nebula Series." As I started looking through them I realized that I really need to return to this series and continue to develop it, but also incorporate these images in my hand-painted silk scarves and throws and pillows! Uh ohhhhhhhhhh more work.. more ideas.. more fun ! Until next time, Create Beauty and fill the world with love! Wynn

The Studio Tour 2008

video

It may not seem like much... But if you realize I was doing all my work before in a room that was 1/4 the size of this you will understand why I am elated.

I actually have separate spaces to paint, assemble cards and art booklets, silk paint, dye and steam, AND sew. I also have storage space (the next tour) for the 200 some framed paintings I have here to move around for shows.

It IS like going to artist heaven! Financial success MUST be the next step! Wish me luck!

Until next time,

Create Beauty and fill the world with Love!
