trodden path

have been in a  mild funk all summer, studio time was agonizingly unproductive, work  coming out was more like arrrg than ahhh . was seriously wondering if i had no more to say and considered leaving textile practice.
a series of events including the passing of two friends acted as a wake up call and i am back again on my toes. life's indeed too short to be wasted .

yarns mocking wire, aged and covered in patina.passage of time.i had already started working with these, but the concept was not very clear in my mind.now it's just onward with it.




neki desu
 

working hard

never fails. now that my tai chi  and japanese classes are starting i am furiously working on  this project.on my behalf i can say that y needed a lace carriage and it took a while to find one for my punch card machine.
ironically using it has taken me to explore hand transfers, as they are less regular than punch cards
