Finishing Touches

I decided to take a couple days off work to finish up last minute details for the show. I deliver the artwork on monday and thought completing the last few pieces I want to include would be fun. Although taking some time off work was the real goal. What a luxury to take off work and hang out in my studio.

So as it’s snowing outside I’m happily at work in my studio stitching lines back and forth on Markings #22 and listening to the new Kinsey Millhone Mystery – T is for Trespass by Sue Grafton. I’ve been reading this series for years and am always happy when a new one comes along.

 
Happy Valentines Day everyone. Chocolate for everyone!

    My postcard just arrived over here in England. I love the image and it was a lovely Valentine’s day surprise- certainly reminded me of one of my great loves. Thanks for sending the card, I do hope the exhibition goes well, I am hoping for some pictures of it on your blog. And tomorrow is my day for studying with my textile mentors Leslie Morgan and Claire Benn so could it get any better!

  2. Thanks for the postcard, Lisa –beautiful quilt!

    I enjoy keeping up with your blog. There always seems to be some synchronicity. I’ve initiated some movement on my own desire to try acupuncture.

    Its nice to see the works.

    And also your studio is amazing, reminds me of my college days. I am also an Fine Arts graduate.

    All the best for the exhibition.

    That quilt looks stunning on the card. I notice you note copyright. Do you actually fill out the forms and apply for copyright on each piece, or just state it for the record?

    I thought I was on your mailing list, but apparently not. Oh – probably the e-mailing list. Is it too late? I’ll send it along in case.

    I received my postcard today in Australia. Thank you! Best wishes for your exhibition. (By the way, I am intrigued by the “textile paintings” terminology.)

    Thanks everyone. Shelia – copyright stuff will come in the future as I do want to investigate it. Brenda – I’ll write more about that term at some point – I’m letting it soak in right now.
