Seeing Past

Ok again,

gotten into the super speed mode

smokin' trail behind

ignoring all stop signs,

forgetting the how to get,

there!

To see the difference

between life and

created life.

Where are the people,

there?

Everyday moments are special,

too special to see in a burr.

Get it? Again?

Do you see how it/things/stuff,

doesn't really matter?

Just Everyday has the best to offer.

Right There!

Again! Again! Say it Again!

Be right there,

right, there!

Digital imagery in Fiber Art: Using Textured Backgrounds for a Painterly Effect with Wen Redmond

Join fiber artist Wen Redmond and learn her captivating technique for adding unusual dimension to fiber art with textured photographs.

First, you'll journey through Wen’s step-by-step process for printing a photograph on a textured background by spreading lightweight molding paste onto a stabilizer base and adding textural markings. Then, learn how to add another layer after the substrate dries by using it as paper in an inkjet printer. You'll also discover tips and tricks for printing using both Adobe® Photoshop® and Microsoft® Word to create a painterly photo thin enough to be sewn and manipulated. Finally, you'll love adding finishing layers by playing and experimenting with textured mediums!

Embark on a wonderful and fun journey with Wen Redmond and celebrate the limitless possibilities of combining digital photography and texture.

to allow the thing out that has to come out.

 To acknowledge something,

 to miss an event that is important,

 to let another, happen,

that needs to happen.

At Home in my Studio

I've posted pictures of my mill studio but I have given that up after 9-10 years.
Here's a few studio shots of my very messy and FILLED studio in my home.

We are building a new home and I will have a similar sized new studio- so how will I paint?
more later...

From my journal...

Remember, Remember!

This morning and all the rest

are new!

Begin, 

Begin again,

and again!
