Always good to make changes and here at Blue Sky Dreaming I'm preparing to step away from the flat surface for awhile. I'm putting together three dimensional shapes and using my stories, fabrics, beads and stitching in a different way. Not altogether new for me but with a fresh approach. I've written some of my stories and some working titles such as 1. Caravans 2. Healing from within 3.Magic and incantations 4. a favorite of mine, Abandoned elements. I am featuring a mask I created a long time ago (in the sidebar, click to read) as a reminder to myself of the fun of changing things up! I had also added some interesting thoughts and quotes...worth the read. What are you tweaking, changing, altering in your art making? New Year is a good time for some off road play in art making. Wish me luck and tell me of your plans!
3D is always so much fun! And I love that mask. :-) I am actually joining a local artisan co-op and opening my own little gallery to the public this year. Only a small space attached to my studio, but I am so excited and am looking forward to creating some new and exciting lines for my textiles!
ReplyDeleteJulie, 3D is fun and a challenge. Your new year sounds very exciting!
DeleteOh I love the mask! and I am with you, new year and new projects! cheers!
ReplyDeleteCaterina, New pages, new images!
DeleteA new year and a new approach - always a good way to challenge ourselves and bring something exciting to the work! I love your titles; can't wait to see what manifests!
