Encased

The other thing that I have been working on

has been a big delight for me.

Something that I have wanted to make for

years and years.

I have one at our home in Newfoundland

and love it.

These frames are filled with

colourful pieces of glass, 

weathered sea glass,

pretty china

and other tiny little treasures.

They hang in your window

and the light dances through the

glass collage.

They are the Stonetown Arts Show

in St. Marys this weekend

and one will be on

display at The Emporium in St. Marys.

This should be hanging in a window ... it will be one day - not sure where.

This one is painted with antique white chaul paint. It will hang soon. I do know where. It lives in Stratford.

Brush Folk

I didn't truly do it again, but sort of.

Forget that I had a blog to share my creations.

I guess the more accurate truth is that

there hasn't been that much 'creating' happening.

I was glad to get back up to my studio

and mess around with paint and glue and wire and jewels

as the new community of 

Brush Folk 

were born.

They were created 

because I needed something to take to the

Stonetown Arts Show in St. Marys.

It was a wonderful excuse to get

playing again.

They had to get to where they were going

before I got a chance to name them.

That was really hard for me,

to send them off into the world 'nameless'.
