Lantern, Still in Progress
November 21st, 2008
This is the Lantern piece in it's current state. Not done yet, but coming along nicely so far. I'm letting the work just flow at this point, things are developing that I wasn't quite expecting, so I'm still not sure exactly how it will end up. It might not be very different from how it is now or it could change dramatically. Even thought I'm doing AEDM, I don't want to rush it, so I'm letting it develop at it's own pace.
I'm planning a fun and creative weekend, a craft fair with my bff, and maybe a movie and a trip to the art store too while the hubster watches football. Hehe. I hope everyone has a wonderful one!

Leah – beautiful so far. I was showing my two oldest children your work this evening. Daughter (16) may contact you to ask if she can do some “dolling” on-line inspired by your figures and your art world. She loves your figures.

It turly looks lovely…do you paint over the collage pages and then lift off paint to let them show through?

More & more lovely! In the summer there’s a lavender festival, with tours to the farms in the area (Oregon’s Willamette River valley), including a ‘paint out’ with artists gathering & scattering with paint & brushes, charcoal, you name it!
I always ‘want to’ do it – would be a blast to do it a la collage, wouldn’t it?? Start a board, then plein aire paint!!

Love the pictures you have been sharing – have finally accessed my computer so have posted all of my AEDM items for the past week. HAve been very busy. Can’t believe that the month is nearly over.

When I clicked on your blog just now I was struck once again by how wonderful your banner is even though I’ve seen it over and over again… and then I noticed that this work too is about a lantern… your lanterns are definitely speaking to me!
