It's been a helluva weekend. I spent too much time at the computer getting entries ready for two different shows and I'm starting to feel a real need for keeping track of what gets entered or promised where and when.
Friday night at Fiber on a Whim listening to
Pamela Allen talk about her career as an artist and the evolution of her work was fun and turned out to be revelatory. The last piece she showed us was a subject matter and technique departure for her and I was quite captivated.
I've been so far out in whole cloth, dye-painted country that I was beginning to think I might fall off the fiber sphere altogether and just go back to paint on canvas. Pamela reminded me of some of possibilities of working with fiber that I had forgotten about. This "Horned Newt" is hot from the design wall in just the last two innings.

the horned newt is great! I love the painted background -- very "you", but the cockatoo (?) is the icing on the cake :-)
i can hear the conversation between these two and the cockatoo has that "why are you meddling in our conversation" look.
Very whimiscal...nice job!
