Just about running out of ideas to try for Miss Betty Boop. I thought I had it figured out – a chemical reaction within the powders, but … I don’t think so now. I think the charred/burnt look is actually the black base powder coming through, as the layers are so thin … Here’s my …
Yep, I stretched that day out to a whole week! Family time, play time, and plenty of food! All while giving thanks for those who [have] provide[d] for my independence … Not much to show from the studio (although, I am sporting a sunburn from time in the pool) … Here’s a picture of the …
I’d never heard that particular idiom (link for the origin of this phrase can be found here), but – I’m happy, so go ahead – call me Larry … Great week! Good food/family time, a bit of sunshine in the pool, lots of romp time with the pooches, and I’m pleased with my studio work …
but – still being productive. After seven phone calls, I have the next doctor’s appointment set, this time with an academic dermatologist (yeah, I didn’t realize there are different types either) … I see him in 6 weeks. Lordy, here’s hoping everything stays stable and the fever stays at bay. As a healthcare worker – …
It means I’m producing! Here’s my finished Welcome Yoda sun-catcher/sign … Not bad – I like it, and I know what I will do differently next time: And iridescent platters (Yay!): And more dichro badge reels: Of course, it also means sitting at the computer cropping photos, creating ‘fun’ descriptions for the listings …
[Fingers Crossed!!!] My irid platters are back in the kiln … this is where I blew it last time. Here’s hoping the kiln-Gods are pleased with me today … I’ll find out tomorrow. I moved my zentangle badge reels/pendants along. I capped one (you’re not supposed to, but I like it), ground edges on a …
Dog-with-a-bone persistent … yep, that’s me. I cleaned out my coffin-kiln fiasco, and ran to my favorite glass supply store this week to stock up on iridescent glass. I will make some (amazing) irid platters, DANG IT! So, here we go … Take 2, scene 1: I also have my T.V. Picasso/zentangle cabs etched … …
Up, down and run around – just call me ‘Sue’ … or Crazy. What a week! Started on Monday, with a middle of my sleep-time doctor’s appointment. Back and forth we went 3 times this week (more in a minute) … And in between? We (ok, actually Olivia) had puppies! Some 16 hours of (well …
A long, stressful day … but a good day. Started early this morning as we flew pups off to their new homes. Got home just in time to watch their flights progress across the country … New extended family in NJ, MD, FL and MN. All the babies did well, and I’m happy and sad …
