Dear blog
sorry to have ignored you for so long
didn't really plan this but i have been super busy with family, work and making since the new year
i mean if you had to choose between playing in the snow or baking cookies with lilith and lachlan in your precious spare time or typing on a computer
what would you do
yes
of course
I did want to show you the work for my group art show Terrain at the Craft Ontario Shop (formerly the guild shop) in Yorkville, Toronto running from March 23 to April 12.
my work was inspired by the north, the landscape of sea, snow and ice for the majority of the year and then the uncovered tundra with its mosses, grasses , sedges and lichen with its ever so brief appearance of arctic wildflowers
the stage for these photographs was created with ice globes made by freezing water in balloons
this was facilitated by the deep freeze experienced all of the month of february
when I photographed these it was snowing softly
it was worth my frozen finger tips
