of witches

according to popular belief there are two kinds of witches: good witches and bad witches.bad witches are called bitches.

 good witches are called fairies. i, like wendy and peter, do believe in fairies.i do! i do!

not only that, i have proof of their existence. just look at my mail of today.

the color of things

some windfall lichens picked up almost 2 years ago at my sister's right after a storm.

finally got to soak them in ammonia waiting to see what color i get.been soaking for 2 days and  it seems i'll get a yellowy beige- with luck. the color is not terribly exciting so far so i'll leave them  alone and wait.

general strike  in southern europe today. as if frau merkel cared.

this is the way it ends

  

 not with a bag. look at all those little lines. i think i should have stitched less. i'm not 100% pleased, but, given that it was an upcycle project it came out o.k. and i rendered the shawl usable(??)think the soda ash reacted w. the glue and the gold foil turned weird . it will eventually fall off.

full view. and i thought i was skimpy stitching! the negative lines could have been thicker, but i like the way they integrate the stamping and give unity to a somewhat scattered silk shawl.and the ai came out nice and dark, lighter at the back but, i just can't stop fiddling with some new downloaded actions.

now, that's entertainment :)
