This is a test print for the linocut I worked on this weekend.
This is #3 in a series of linocuts of Brookhaven, Mississippi landmarks.
Each plate in the series will measure 2 inches x 2 5/8ths inches.

#mailart 2 project
#mailart 2 is off and running and I am thrilled to be part of it!
Twitter's #mailart project is the brainchild of Mark Philip Venema and you can read more about it on his blog, here:
http://markphilipvenema.wordpress.com/2009/06/10/second-mailart-group/
The theme for this round of #mailart is Time and Being Human and I have been brainstorming for the project. Even though I can't share the images until after they have reached their future owners I can share some of my brainstorming.
I've been trying to focus on different concepts of what time can mean in my day to day life, what time can feel like, how it functions day to day...
These are some of the ideas brewing. Many of them may become #mailart, others will fall by the wayside.
Roaring
Rapid
Growing
Dying
Birth
Full
Empty
Snared
Sucked in
Snared
Caught
Stagnant
Swift
Money
Empty
Elusive
Hard to hold/catch
over booked/overloaded/overextended
Stretched thin
Blocked in
Flies
Creeps
Hindsight
Stands Still
Rich
Progression
Rippling
eroding
wearing
building
wasted
repetitive
productive
cyclical
rut
fading
treasure.........
I am excited to see how these ideas come to fruition and will share them with you when the project runs its course.
Hope you enjoy!

I'm Back - Finally!
Feel free to chastise me for staying away so long, but Vacation and illness are my excuses.
We had a lovely vacation earlier this month to Lake Fausse Point State Park in South Louisiana. The park is fantastic and the cabin we rented was wonderful. We had the opportunity to visit Avery Island and tour the Tobasco plant and the Jungle Gardens there. Really lovely.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip!
We got to see quite a few gators, and got closer to this one than I like!
Things are slowly getting back to normal, though, so here I am at long last to fill you in on recent happenings. I'm slowly finishing some tatted items to add to my etsy shop and am pondering some new items to add.
I have a lovely baby bootie pattern that I love to make (though it is a tad time consuming), but I want to make them in some less traditional colors. Suggestions anyone? I'm thinking dark brown or turquoise or a nice pale green. Hmmm.....
I am also venturing out with some new bookmark patterns, but I want to try a few more out before I settle on them for the shop.
I finally managed to finish a special order necklace and two other necklace I am giving as gifts.
I've also joined in on a #mailart project from twitter. (I'm @knotaway if you'd like to follow me there.) I'll be part of a group of 30 or so artists who will create a postcard size peice of art for each participant. We will mail them to each other. Everyone should receive 30 pieces of original art from artists all over the world. Fun, Fun, Fun!!! I'll be sure to post more details about that later!
Thanks for visiting. More Later!
