The craft fair this past weekend wasn't terribly lucrative, but at least it gave me a goal for producing some jewelry. I now have a display of my stained glass earrings at The Art House in Craftsbury, plus they carry my soap. This is in addition to the Blinking Light Gallery in Plainfield which has these plus my nuno felted scarves. Next on the agenda is my application to Art on Main in Bristol. My display for that is ready now since there was such a production crunch last week.
After a few busy days with a craft fair, working at a gallery, checking out a business opportunity with a gallery partnership in southern Vermont, I've finally gotten back into the studio. I worked yesterday on a couple of collages over existing (rather boring) prints. This one is called "Open Your Eyes" because of the chocolate wrapper in the center that says "open your eyes to all the love around you." It has a puzzle piece that I picked up during a date with my last partner and the cancelled stamp from my finalized divorce settlement. A moon phase calendar, a tag from a Christmas gift to my ex-husband, and a block printed whale that I picked up during my residency at the Studio Center are included along with some vintage photos and other miscellaneous images. I made a second collage with a big red squirrel speaking in Spanish surrounded by random pieces of writings in other languages. Photos of that one will follow later.
