June's came with her neighbour, John, and his trusty pick-up to load the stamp rack. It has given me years of good service and is now going to a good home 'up the Coast'. It was quite the chore but June and Owen did it, with a little help from John and I. Word has it that the truck survived the trip.Art Escape Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03372794678507097372noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4744428226167629937.post-41332104789338300362016-04-18T00:21:00.000-07:002016-05-10T11:47:52.844-07:00UPCOMING STUDIO SALE, April 24, 2016<div style="color: #222222;">

A book press and book. The books covers are made from spalded yellow cedar, the signatures from Fabriano watercolour paper. It was fun and the end projects came out beautifully. The book press was already pre-sold and so far I haven't had a reason to part with the book. Wonder if I ever will. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Owen and I submitted our Random Acts of Art to the Gibsons Landing Art Gallery to be shown in the 5th annual Sunshine Coast Art Crawl. The rules were to create a piece of art on a 8 X 10 inch straight board. You were given a theme in the form of a saying and 24 hours to complete your project. 120 pieces were submitted and were for sale to the public during the Art Crawl. Approximately 30% of the pieces were sold and Owen's was one of them. Two followers have offered to purchase mine since the show and I am now mailing it away to Alaska to my sister Karen. Thank you Dolores for your kind words about my piece and I will be painting something and sending it to you in Kazakhstan in the spring. </span></div>

Last month I was invited to introduce Book Arts to the Sunshine Coast Surface Design Guild. They began their informal meeting with a 'show and tell'. What an amazing group of artists. We had a beautiful lunch and then it was my turn to share with them my books and journals, techniques and ideas. It was great fun and inspiring to spend time with this lovely group of ladies.<br />

My good friend, Vonnie, works across the street from the Ladner Thrift Store, it's one of the best. Here are photo's of what was in the package that arrived last week. The 'mother load'.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is a sample of some of what I have been doing in Deryn Mentock's online mixed media jewelry workshop called Build Zone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have been playing 'catch up' in the studio since we returned home from CA the first week of April. It's a good thing I've done wire work and
jewelry making before because there is a lot of material that is familiar to me but Deryn
has great design concepts and I like the mixed media element of her jewelry.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> AND I'm using a blow torch. There is no doubt, I'm learning lots.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I haven't had a lot of time in the studio in the last while. Certainly not to teach any classes but recently a friend, Ken, who had crafted these gorgeous spalded wood book covers and I made a coptic bound book using the covers. It sure came out nice, didn't it?</span></div>Art Escape Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03372794678507097372noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4744428226167629937.post-39852465650775875732011-09-15T17:54:00.000-07:002011-09-15T18:55:57.748-07:00Black and White Collaborative<span style="font-family:verdana;">We have had a busy summer. Spending time on Keats Island and Ruxton Island. Lots of work, sunshine, socializing and fun. Great combination. It's good to be home for a couple of months. While away, I was able to participate in a 'Black and White Collaborative' that was due at the end of August. I struggled with the fact that I didn't have my studio to work in and just a small kit of pens and markers with me so I chose to do personal journal pages and I had so much fun. I'd rise early - maybe 6:30'ish a.m. and spend a couple of hours each day by the light of the morning sun - doodling and drawing. The serenity and beauty around me gave me more than enough inspiration. The pages were in the mail before the deadline. A first. I'm attaching scans of the outcome.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><br /></span><span style="font-family:verdana;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzSIiFrftyij7ixqmdoyhgBzjX-vxreienHWNLcTXcCw3XwS-9erTi-4ClwdxB17_8xE9KWtsqgWdRvngak0X5M1stmSe3jtmvYOcewhaj8NfUeFJ2RzpbWMroVUANFUGdJpaCq3I-UEcS/s1600/75%2525+5.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

What a talented fibre, mixed media and embellishment aratist. Eileen generously allowed us to take photo's of her work and I am posting them here for you to enjoy. They will be here for a couple of weeks and then I will remove them. Eileen is a fabulous instructor and throughout the day, she was able to show us (with time to practice on our own) all of the stitiches you see in her small sampler hangings. These are 4" X 4" in size and include the seed stitich, lazy stitich, back stitch, couching stitch, picot edging, doubt picot edging and lace stitch. We also learned how to do a spider web in order to attach objects that do not have holes. We did a stop stitich, branch stitch, fringe and branched fringe as well as a zigzag fringe and spriral fringe. And we did the netting that you see at the bottom of her samplers. Now to be able to go back and do them again, which hopefully won't be difficult because Eileen supplied us with great instructions. Eileen can be contacted at 250.752.8684 or by email at </span><a href="mailto:eileenneill@shaw.ca"><span style="font-family:verdana;">eileenneill@shaw.ca</span></a><span style="font-family:verdana;"> </span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiedzrl5I90-I2ODlljR0601w08Ru5nvJUBzdVfbMQ9tAOCXBO5jusZNskO98_IIYl0reKA-gKBalPP9T-f5e5sd-HE2Xo0nC3rsSWUWfrQHtow4fZCjSHuYsfaZGmHhGoO9H2zzfGWQ4Qc/s1600/Sampler+7.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

I've checked my schedule and the above date works for me. Does it work for you? I won't be doing alot of these card classes so if you are interested, here is your chance. In this class you will go away with 2 cards and lots of ideas for more. Join me. If a Saturday isn't good and an evening would be better, call me and we'll work out another date. If you have a Fiskar's cutter, please bring it along to the class. $15</span></div>Art Escape Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03372794678507097372noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4744428226167629937.post-72397969206335780312010-10-31T08:39:00.000-07:002010-11-12T20:17:49.285-08:00Your Own Personal Journal from Recycled Covers<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1Q6DlcbKzgzhW0Zr7zUqcIBBs_c-hOo0CMPivbCBuDW16NFC_Tsp9NRJ-VTgpL493u7zjR94RBqhE9OfkXxFHtZTw5MDuKM45i42kSF_KntaplYfD2xmjyy3OQFJ5HG5JGnxuXvK4frW6/s1600/Recycled+Book+Covers+25%25.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 310px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534239369134354562" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1Q6DlcbKzgzhW0Zr7zUqcIBBs_c-hOo0CMPivbCBuDW16NFC_Tsp9NRJ-VTgpL493u7zjR94RBqhE9OfkXxFHtZTw5MDuKM45i42kSF_KntaplYfD2xmjyy3OQFJ5HG5JGnxuXvK4frW6/s320/Recycled+Book+Covers+25%25.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Owen has the Hardy Boy collection. He had a duplicate copy of #17, The Secret Warning that had been damaged so I removed the block text, reused the covers and rebound fresh journaling pages inside. I've added a pocket and a envelope to store any little piece of emphemera I find along the way. This is my favorite aesthetic journal. I use them for taking notes, art ideas, sayings, studio stuff and my my deepest secrets! $30</div><br /><div>You will need to bring a book with a hard cover that you don't mind removing the text from. Your local second hand store has tons if you don't. The cover can have an image, text or be plain. The choice it yours. It should be no larger than 5.5 inches X 8.5 inches.</div>Art Escape Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03372794678507097372noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4744428226167629937.post-71753006515785373382010-10-31T08:30:00.000-07:002010-11-12T20:18:56.264-08:00Star Album<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMO3kv0fTG3suQrJ-vsNQpYQY_qB0H-Y8iUOK5yoYIbS2gOgscMHL4vBwKkPwW7RkgPYu5F6D6c1cV8HjGIkFfGfKFDgZ6FCadUQ1ktiZkHBNFaTNwf1efpIYXa44ueuYa13Nn3xB2fLs-/s1600/Hardman's+Album+Cropped.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 207px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534234856838359698" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMO3kv0fTG3suQrJ-vsNQpYQY_qB0H-Y8iUOK5yoYIbS2gOgscMHL4vBwKkPwW7RkgPYu5F6D6c1cV8HjGIkFfGfKFDgZ6FCadUQ1ktiZkHBNFaTNwf1efpIYXa44ueuYa13Nn3xB2fLs-/s320/Hardman's+Album+Cropped.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN8RAw4gtpFBtk6IsFl_K6RKwADHpceoWARmyjHCRjssjdCKN3BToRN9N9A26xROpp-TnU_gRaB1Y992EKpljm3uPNCfKVTohMF58HTOoYXPXdhNya-J7smf28IPXoSqqJSOvb42WBMca6/s1600/July+Star+Albums+2004.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534234760020048594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN8RAw4gtpFBtk6IsFl_K6RKwADHpceoWARmyjHCRjssjdCKN3BToRN9N9A26xROpp-TnU_gRaB1Y992EKpljm3uPNCfKVTohMF58HTOoYXPXdhNya-J7smf28IPXoSqqJSOvb42WBMca6/s320/July+Star+Albums+2004.jpg" /></a> <div>Monday, November 15 from 1:00 pm to 3:30 pm</div><br /><div>I think I have taught this class a few dozen times. It's definately a popular workshop. Probably because this album allows the participants to create something that they can then go home and 'scrapbook' by adding photo's and titles to have as a memory. The Star Album makes a great thank you gift, or reunion souvenier or perhaps a special Christmas or wedding mini photo album, or baby brag book; ~the ideas are endless. Once you know the trick, they are fast and easy. You will go away with two of these little gems and I know you will want to make more. $30</div></div>Art Escape Studiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03372794678507097372noreply@blogger.com0
