I'm in the midst of preparing for a full weekend mixed media workshop in Kimberley. Are you going to join me there? Please do - we're in for a crazy play-ful time!
All three pieces are being created with cast-offs - furniture, wood, dried leaves (Mother Nature is so very giving!), etc. The name of the show is Material Change, instigated by a fabulous textile artist Darcy Wanuk of Kimberley. It will feature her work, the work of Puffin Design owners Alison and Bart Bjorkman, and mine. I hope your Art Appetite is fully engaged, 'cause it's going to be a knock-out!
Of course, that's not all that's on my mind...there's always more. In the studio and in my life, I expect the unexpected, so stop in next week to see what else is happening!
How Exciting! A workshop, your new pieces, another show. Yes, I agree, what a wonderful mantra to live by, to "Expect the Unexpected", and dare I add, "live in the moment"... because you do it better than anyone else I've met!
ReplyDeleteSo much on the go, it's like being in the middle of a 'now' whirlwind, Lynne. And thanks for the kudos from a poster girl for 'live in the moment'! :D
DeleteSuch super pieces in the works Winn! It looks like you have been busy with more stencils which is-something I have been trying too (although not as successfully I am afraid). Have fun at the workshop.
ReplyDeleteI love working with stencils, Val, and one of the workshops that I have 'in my mind to create' is one that's totally devoted to them...I'll keep you posted!
DeleteYour sneak peeks look fabulous already and I would love to join your MM class but alas it is a little far ! :o)

Just way too bad, Corrie- we'd have a hoot playing together!
DeleteLoving your sneak peeks Win! The two-day workshop sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Zsuzsa - they're larger projects and out of my box, so it's going to be fun to see where they go. And the workshop will be a massive play weekend; I can hardly wait!
DeleteThat table leg is gorgeous. I can only imagine how stunning it's going to look when you finish it. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks, Arnoldo - I'm mandala-crazed, and the whole tableis going to be covered in them! :D
DeleteBest wishes with your show Win!!
ReplyDeleteThe leg looks very intriguing!! Can't wait to see where you are going with it!
hugs my friend,Jackie
Me either, Jackie! :D Luckily, it's a good while before it needs to be finished, so it can grow a bit on its own. xo
DeleteSo exciting! Hope you will have much fun and wishing you the best for the show!
ReplyDeleteOXO

Thanks, Susi - isn't the art life the best ever?!!!
DeleteA bit of a commute for me, Win, but I have to tell you this sounds so exciting! Lucky ladies who will be learning from you.
ReplyDeleteWish you could come and play, though Kay - wouldn't we have a blast?!
Deletelooks awesome Win!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Roz - it's such a pleasure to be in the studio!
DeleteThat table leg is a great tease Win! It's going to be a wonderful show and I know your workshop is going to be a hit!
ReplyDeleteI just love those close-ups where one has NO idea what's going on...and we're going to have a blast at the workshop and at the show!
DeleteI love the effect of the cheese cloth, will look for it :) Have a fun with the workshops, wish I could join in. Take good care, Shirleyxx
ReplyDeleteOh, me too, Shirley...I think it's a fabulous look! Hugs, my friend...xo
DeleteThis sounds so fun, love your snowflake theme and design especially the last piece of cheesecloth texture. Would you mind if I used it woven through one of my designs it is such a fabulous texture and color. Don't be afraid to say no, I understand.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely feel free to use the image - any time Deann! You know I'm going to love whatever you do it!
DeleteI have just found your blog Winn. Looks like a blast.
ReplyDeleteHappy to see you here, Gay - we're built for fun! :D
