Teasing ...

So, you want to peek through the drapes and see what is happening in the studio lately, eh? Well, choose an apple from the bowl, have a seat, and take a few peeks at works in progress...


This is a portion of Belle Starr ... more on the way soon.

And this is some of the beginnings of a new mixed media project. It has to be changed DRAMATICALLY from the original concept. I thought that these shoes were going to be 6 inches long when I ordered them from eBay. Turns out that they're SIZE 6...in human size. What was intended to be a shadow box may very well turn into a room sized installation. I'm still in need of green glitter opera length gloves!


and, juuuuuuuust one final tease for you...
Well, that's enough of this silliness. I'm off to get to work.
I hope you have plans to make something beautiful today ... and that you'll let me peek!

    Those shoes are my size! I wish I could click my heels together, get this move over with and say in the words of Judy G.
