A Table Takes Flight • Final Print inspired by George Nelson Furniture

The modern appearance of Dragonflies,

tail to tail forming a ribbon in flight.

When a piece is finished,
the art is seen and felt.

Sometimes the direction one starts is not necessarily where one ends up.
See original inspiration and sketches in my two previous posts here and here.
My clean modern lines went organic as the carving tools made their own course.
I love handmade pieces and its imperfections.

Thanks for stopping by!

Art Every Day Twenty- Nine • The Traveling Studio

Day Twenty-Eight of Making Art Every Day

Today was a travel day of sorts. Spent time at both my son's school working on part of a fundraising project. Holiday wreathes are going to be made and sold with lovely art stamped bows on them. This is where I come in, I spent the day stamping ribbons for the bows, hence the traveling studio! Box and bag in tow I brought my supplies and set up shop. Here is some of the creative work done today.

AEDM brings together a group of creative people committing themselves to more creativity for the month of November. Stop by Leah's website, Creative Every Day and check out fellow artist and their creations for Art Every Day Month.

Thank you for stopping by.

Distracted by a Dress

Went to a "another" favorite shop that carries vintage and vintage inspired clothes and just fell in love with this print on a maxi dress, so I had to buy the dress. I wanted to display the dress in my studio for inspiration but when I put it on a wooden hanger it did not do the dress justice. It was almost like eating a gourmet meal on a paper plate. So for the past few days instead of making art I have been playing with ribbons and a hanger! I decided to wrap some found ribbon to jazz up the hanger. The dress deserved to be displayed on a nice hanger.
