Meanwhile, back at the ranch . .

It's been more than 24 hours since Challenge #37 was issued, and I'm still pondering 'outer space'.  I do have a few ideas that I'm trying to connect . . .with sheers, angelina fibers, and hand stitching, but I'm not ready to commit..



I was at Matt's studio this morning for a workout and discovered this stuck on the wall.  It's a small piece, about 4x4.  I'm not sure how it is constructed, but find it very interesting.  He claims there is a crane there.  It has the feel of impermanence - meaning it could be either coming....or going.  I like it.

And now, back to pondering outer space.

Challenge #37 has been issued!

Outer Space.  A view of outer space or from outer space is the challenge.

I recently joined the Fast Friday Fabric Challenge groupAm I excited?  Yes I am.  I have been learning and practicing various techniques with dyes and resists on fabric for a while now.   I really am craving the opportunity for some guided challenges along with supportive critiques that a group like this offers.

The FFFC Yahoogroup is presented with an artistic challenge once a month that must be completed within one week!

I am awaiting the next challenge announcement on September 25.

If you want to visit the FFFC blog to view previous challenges including the most recent Challenge #36 (transparencies with low horizons), check it out.. You will find some fascinating work.
