Art Birds

Hello everyone!

Last time we were together I was 

making beaks out of sculpty.

Those beaks have now become

art birds.

As with most everything I make these birds 

are one of a kind and all original. 

For Mother's Day I made this aviary for my 

Mom.

I have also opened an Etsy shop.

http://www.etsy.com/shop/connectingpieces?ref=si_shop
It is called connectingpieces.

These are just a few of the things that are keeping me
busy this spring.

Missing you all and thinking of you often.

Drawing - Zentangle, my first attempt

Winky came to class with her new books about Zentangle art.
I had never heard of it but was attracted
to the idea of meditative drawing.
I don't feel that I am an artist but after sketching this owl,
 the fun began.
  I created each section and then chose the
different zentangle patterns as I went along.

Crafts - Sculpted Puppet

I have begun my first attempt at making a puppet. 

It's a challenge but I have help and determination also.

Fibers-Knitted Scarf

I am working on a Ruffle Scarf!!

  Or as Ginny Taylor says a potato chip scarf :)

As I began I was not sure it was "ruffling"

 then all of a sudden after knitting

 a few rows....a ruffle!

Such fun!

It is camel colored with tiny sequins. 

I will keep you posted

on my progress

throughout this Summer!
