no.... I didn't think so.....
all the moist weather has made my current art-making quite tricky... I've finally finished the hinged lid box for 'orbis floris II'..... but it's taking a long time to completely dry..... I've snuck the piece out from under weights for this quick pic....

ooooo golly... here comes another heavy downpour! (after ten years of drought I absolutely refuse to whine about too much rain!)
....
It's not actually raining here at the minute, but there's an awful lot of water running down our flooded river - fortunately outside the levee bank around our town. I'm not whinging either after the drought we've just had.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sneak peek - it looks fantastic!
Hey, we had sun today AND yesterday AND I managed to dry the washing! Love the collage/drawing approach - looks great and I can't wait to see the finished piece... Sara x
ReplyDeleteYes the wet makes it interesting for paper artists hey? This is looking gorgeous and I love the splotches with the circles and the stitched lines- and the little letters in the little circles for the title. I hope it arrived in time to be accepted -if not, we hope to see it at Spiral instead!
ReplyDeletePS - brilliant sunshine today after quite a bit of wet!
i like the cover. i am reminded a bit of tim ely's work.
ReplyDeleteOoh! that's just gorgeous! Makes me think of wattle blossom.
ReplyDeleteActually I was in Sydney from last Sun - Fri and there was barely a drop of rain. Which I thought was quite odd, given the flooding elsewhere in the state!
I hadn't thought of wattle blossoms amanda - gosh I'm pleased you spoke up! you're right it DOES look like wattle and I love that idea!
ReplyDeleteit's been dry and not too muggy here today - I hope it was likewise in other places in the state (it seems everywhere over the ranges has been drenched then drenched again this week)
