Moving into Limited Editions
I’m sure all artists feel this way eventually – you want to create your work but you don’t necessarily want to create that same piece of work over and over and over and over again. Your brain works overtime coming up with new ideas and you barely have enough time to jump out of bed (I do a lot of my design thinking early in the morning before I’ve gotten up) and write them down (or draw them, as the case may be). At any rate, that’s where I’m at these days. I want to create the pieces that I’ve drawn on paper but I don’t particularly want to make them 10 times each, or even 3 times each. Anyway, that’s how the Limited Editions section of our website came to be. The pieces you see in this section will be available until they are sold out. We may never make them again but we’ll probably leave them up there so you can see what we’ve been up to and what people like so much they’ve bought.
Hinged finally made it onto the site in the Limited Editions section. I apologize for taking so long in getting it up there but I’ve been really busy with my “real” job and, because of that, I got very behind.
Along with Hinged (Shauna named that one for me), I added two more pieces that I just finished (the amethyst version is shown here). As I say on the website, I’m not sure where the inspiration came from so I’ll just say it came from my Dad. It’s probably true. If I ever get close to crafting as well as he did, I’ll be very happy! These are called Screened In Amethyst and Screened In Peridot. Window screens. Yup, that’s what they remind me of!
Well, I can’t think of anything else to say for now. I’m anxious to get back to my work table and open my notebook to see which piece I’ll start next! Until then!
