Pop goes the Dolly


I've been thinking about turning my paintings into jewelry bits and other things. Pretty hard when the painting has a lot of detail. Function was for the first time an element I had to think about in my art. Tattoos for instance can have a lot of detail but they just don't translate very well if they are too small...so I went for a pop art, cartoony look as a test. Camera phone quality photo but you get the idea.

Debut, Debate & Delima

My first attempt at writing some live content.

I've got the Presidential debate on in the other room. Even turned off the Hayes Carl cd to semi listen. I'm Canadian so can't vote down here...but y'all can. Please do.

This weekend has some tough competition for stuff to do. There's MakerFaire, The Day of the Drags (old school car racing- pre '64s), The City-Wide garage sale and the plant sale at Lady Bird Johnson wildlife center. What's a crafty girl to do??
