At the Gallery
During a recent weekend I was one of three textile artists featured at Good Goods Gallery in Saugatuck, Michigan. Dawn Edwards (on left) who makes fabulous felt hats is demonstrating felting to a customer (on right).
Sandra Adams who is the third featured artist is watching with me. Sandra's medium is also felting and she, too, had a table out in Good Good's garden for demonstrating her techniques that result in scarves ... scarves that I would hang on a wall as art, rather than wear.
I demonstrated my "ortwork" collage technique in the upstairs gallery.
Above I was composing a small lake piece. The foundation of which was made up of cut-offs from "The Lake" installation piece.
Two were completed that afternoon. Each was purchased almost before I could get the back signed. In fact, the first one was gone before I thought to take a photo. Here's a picture of the second one."Piece of The Lake" 8"x 8"
Speaking of a piece of "The Lake", two of the five rows of my ArtPrize entry is hanging in Good Good's Gallery until next Friday.
Next Sunday all 5 rows will be installed in DeVos Place ready for the BIG exhibition that begins September 22nd.

Judging from the panels behind you, it will be a spectacular installation. I can hear the waves and feel the breeze!
An exciting day for you next Sunday Nellie. Even incomplete your fabulous lake masterpiece looks wonderful. I love the way you make use of the cut-offs and am not surprised the mini lakes were snapped up.
The lake panels behind you are stunning!! Not at all surprised your there and your small works were sold so quickly!!
I read a little about your gallery show on Colleen's blog but it was fun to read in your own words. Your lake panels are lovely - sure wish I could have been there for your demo and to meet you in person. I hope your installation goes well.
Wonderful!! Your piece looks great and I know why those people bought your work so quickly....very smart people indeed :)
Smiles,
