Emerging Architectures

[avad]

I'm working on my art- stressing because I haven't nearly finished the pieces I'm showing next week! (But what else is new- I do this last minute thing every time).
B's working late so I'm taking my dinner break with the computer- munching on thrown together pasta, sauteed mushrooms and sauce with a few chunks of mozzarella on top. Not bad. Not GOOD...but I'm not in cooking mode...just taking a short break.
Spent a good portion of the day crouch-crawling around my lawn picking up sticks. The whole lawn was littered with them from wind and trees and now that it's spring I finally got around to it. Must've looked pretty funny...but it made more sense than bending constantly. It became a smooth fast movement...I felt like a crab or insect-robot. sendao, I tried to take a picture for you of my extra full wheelbarrow-stick-nest...but it was already too dark- I'll take one tomorrow in the sun.:)
In the meantime, here's a pic of the studio with works in progress...



Still lots to go...that's just underpainting...I'll be adding sand and making the nails stand out more (all those black areas are nails. It'll be called Emerging Architectures...I'll talk more about it when it's actually done. I measured and miter-sawed the frame wood...have to stain it tomorrow and make frames for the small pieces.
Ok, that's the end of my pasta...back to work.

oh man...i am so jealous of all that space you have to work in...i've got things hanging on my wall in a little bedroom with low ceilings...i'm sleeping on the floor...gotta cluttered desk and i'm using an ironing board for a work bench.

i would love to have an entire apartment complex to myself...filled with studios...and i'd have a different project going on in each one.

if i strike it rich...or if someone gives me a building...i will do that...and let people walk through from room to room...each room being a different experience.hmm. that sounds like fun.

OOO I can't wait to see your final products! I LOVE your studio by the way. Mine is good for what I am into right now but I think of harsh chemicals and flinging paint and this sin't the best space for it. GO GIRL!

You know, if Mr. Goodwrench was a tool, he'd be a miter saw. *giggles* I love that guy... anyway, enough tanject. I want a closer view of that thing you're working on! *impatient*

The nest was lovely, too. :)
