The New PPOS Community!

It has been a pretty busy roll-out of Ardith Goodwin's new Push Past Ordinary Society for Creative Dreamers (PPOS).  The first two weeks are now awesome history.  There was a flurry of activity during the first few days with people signing on to the private group, introducing themselves, and being welcoming to others.

So far, we've had an art swap, movie club review/discussion, professional tips zoom, etc. and will have more events and activities between now and the end of the month based on the monthly theme.

What a group of creatives have gathered together from all over the world...so exciting!!  It is also amazing what people do creatively with whatever they have accessible (including found objects) regardless of whether they call themselves an artist or not!

I feel privileged to be connected with the group and to be traveling with them on what promises to be a very interesting sojourn of 'finding our different' and adventuring into new or expanded ways to express it even more creatively!!!

Fabric Basket - Pretty Easy

This basket was made in Jane Hall's half-day course at IQF 2014.  The greatest amount of time involved in making it--was cutting and sewing the strips together.  Otherwise, it went together easily and quickly (3 hours). These baskets are a great holiday gifting idea that you can match to family and friends' home decoration color schemes.  They're fun and useful besides.

Highjacked Blog Photo

My profile photo was highjacked ! For those of you who are blogging, be wary. There are some unscrupulous folks out there who may be using or about to use a photo(s) you've uploaded to an online photo-hosting site. At the time I created a blog, having a URL for a photo uploaded online was the only way to insert a photo in your profile or to create a custom header. There had been no problems for a long while. This morning, however, I did a Google image search for my name and found my photo linked to a totally different blog than my own! It is possible I didn't mark my file with the online photo-hosting site as private, but I didn't expect this to happen. I don't know whether marking it private would have actually averted the situation, but I'm not waiting to find out. I eliminated my membership to that online photo-hosting service today and caution anyone to be careful with uploading images to the internet . If you read the terms of agreement at many sites, you'...

Life Book 15 - Week 36 Project Completed (or nearly completed)

This project went in an entirely different direction than the Life Book 2015 lesson.  That's ok because we're also working on accepting those times when we move in our own direction using the lesson purely as a launching point. This piece involved experimenting with collage on a substrate (muslin covered with joint compound), followed with paint, more collage, and then the felt, fabric and beaded plant. This piece was created through a class offered by Tamara Laporte from Willing Arts Ltd. For more information, visit this link:  www.willowing.org .
