Interpretation of Stained Glass Window Panel

Using plastic shape stencils, the top image is my interpretation of a stained glass window panel photographed while recently traveling.

To begin, the design had to be adjusted because of the paper size used (5.5" x 8.5"). You can see this in comparing the two photos (bottom is the actual panel photograph). In terms of 'essence', they ailgn very well in color, shape and elements.

This is a Sharpie painting and took hours to complete. It has touches of Posca Pen and Sakura PenTouch for decoration. The paper used was white cardstock that has been fully covered with color.

Final Wheel-throw Pottery Batch

With this batch, I have 73 successful wheel-thrown pots and bowls...wow! That is aside from the nearly 40 fails. So over four months of classes and practice, I've thrown over 110 vessels. Florian Gadsby would be proud...as I've completed my first 100 throws that he advises getting done as soon as one can! I owe some of my learning to him and his videos (on YouTube), and the rest to the instructors, staff and students at BHC (the place I've done my work at since June). Thank you to all my teachers -- meaning all of you in one way or another!

Fine Art Restoration - video

This is an exceptional video of a fine art restoration...just beautifully done (and the music is lovely too)!

New Project in Progress

I'm working on a new project with multiple layers and shapes of different colored organzas. It is an interpretation of lighting on an ice rink...from a show I recently saw. There is a lot more stitching to do, but I like how its coming along. I'm learning organzas are not easy to work with especially when you layer them and have overlaid edges. The fabric also tends to ravel easily. This post also linked to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.com .
