Text of the page (random words):
uff like this when i was young i might not have been in such a hurry to leave see the person in the hat taking a photo in the left corner above that s me there s just all manner of bric a brac it s like a flea market on the tastiest concoction of steroids ever seen by womankind a truffle extravaganza of old linen time rumpled suitcases old glass milk jugs with garden flowers dainty leaves nestled in crystal sorbet cups old steel wash tubs filled with gran s china old table legs and a violet or two to make it merry old picture frames imagery flown away now resting on hot pink chairs and stacks of leaves and ironwork crystal drops and lemondrops and worn silk ribbons dreamy isn t it looks like millefiori actually deep sweet earthy scents of exotic soaps in a wheelbarrow of course bwa birds with attitude i about had a conniption over these wonderful old spice jars a conniption i tell you how in the heck i didn t spend every penny i own and then robbed the pockets of anyone walking by is beyond me well except i do have standards you know and i m saving for a trip to france next summer that might have something to do with it i m already looking forward to the autumn edition of the flea can t come soon enough posted by jane b at sunday april 29 2012 2 comments sunday april 15 2012 artfest charm swap tutorial hello friends finally got caught up on my sleep after the delicious insanity and 3 hour time difference of artfest and if you participated in annie s charm swap trade then you saw a little tag on my charms which promised a little tutorial on how i made them finally here it is note to self probably should have done this before i left but as usual i ran out of time oh well nobody died of it world didn t come to end etc this does require that you know basic crochet first if you have not learned that yet i recommend craftyminx s crochet school tutorials she does a really excellent job of explaining in gobs of detail how to make the chain stitch and the various crochet stitches etc etc so my little tute assumes you already know how to do that step one chain on four or however many chains you want depending on the size of the circle you want to make the gauge of your yarn etc this may vary step two slip stitch to make a circle then start double crocheting into the middle of the circle this mystified me when i started crochet being self taught and didn t know about craftyminx yet so you mean you put the hook into the middle of the circle and not around the sides yes double crochet about 18 stitches your mileage may vary depending on the yarn weight etc etc honestly as my yarn was variegated i just kept going until i saw the colors match up whee my yarn i m crocheting is lilac the yarn i ve already crocheted is lilac that means i m done with this one only 72 more to go note i haven t actually picked up my crochet hooks since i made this project as a mixed media artist it is my privilege to be absolutely bezerkers over sketching or acrylic paint or collage or polymer clay or freeform crochet right up until another shiny object beckons mixed media artists can do anything but sadly not at the same time yay you have half the oyster made tie off the yarn snip snip with the scissors now you can practice your crochet in the round skills again and made another one just like the first whew now we have both sides of the oyster and it s time to put them together how sewing them with your yarn needle and more of the same yarn you used for the oysters i don t know what the stitch is called basting overhand i d call it the just get them where they are attached together dammit stitch sew them together until you are about 3 4 of the way closed then tie off your yarn and snip the tail ends so it all looks neat and tidy you now have a pouch or oyster for your pearl of wisdom that s the glass pebble with the word on it what i did to create these was write some poetic words that described my experiences at artfest and fort worden from my previous visits i really liked doing this and typed them up on the computer put them in a table and made it where the bounding lines of the table weren t visible but they all lined up nicely this was not for aesthetic reasons it was to conserve my vintage paper as they aren t making it anymore haha tore a piece of paper from the endpapers of an old book an atlas of crop yields in the us circa 1935 so you know one of those books that you keep around for its collage fodder and because i want to know where the sorghum production states were not really fed it through the printer voila instant appropriate words for my project without having to spend hours rummaging through old books or dictionaries i m amazed i haven t thought of this before actually as i have an inkjet printer i then sprayed the words with spray on matte sealant you could probably use workable fixatif or any of those sealer sprays for this use whatever you got but try it on a sheet first to make sure it doesn t stain your paper wierdly otherwise the ink will run when you try gluing the paper to the pebble cut or tear out your scrap of paper with word on it and then use gel medium on top of the word to stick it to the back side of the pebble no need to reverse the direction of the word or anything like that when dry i then sealed it with another coat of gel medium i used claudine hellmuth s studio multi medium in matte finish but any kind will work i m sure annie is running an artfest commemorative charm swap next year too already cogitating on what i m going to make for that artfest sigh i love you posted by jane b at sunday april 15 2012 1 comment thursday april 5 2012 just returned from artfest hi friends i just got back from seattle last night oh very late so i will be posting on here this weekend with the tutorial on how i made my artfest charm swap items as promised just wanted you to know and i have some beautiful photos to share with you too what a glorious art adventure it was posted by jane b at thursday april 05 2012 no comments friday march 23 2012 how very curious i m attempting to navigate the newest incarnation of blogspot s uhh interface is that the right word anyway i noticed that it gives me statistics on how many people look at my blog more than i d think and from where they are doing their looking the us mostly followed by canada which makes sense to me and then followed by india and australia blog visitors from india and from australia somehow came as more of a surprise i hope my blog readers in india are looking at their laptops from a gloriously colorful temple with lush flowers and placid fishponds and not bored it folks sitting in a cube somewhere in delhi i imagine wherever you are readers in india that it might look like this kenny the dog however advises me differently he s pretty sure that squirrels are my biggest readers he says in between admiring the spectacular acorn hat action my readers probably are more like this he s very attuned to the squirrel tribe photo credit unknown but not me i salute you buddhist squirrel lover whoever you are posted by jane b at friday march 23 2012 no comments tuesday march 20 2012 blogging logjam on the very edge of my rather large feet i couldn t say tiptoe because really how old am i in which i very carefully very slowly return to my blogging activities the problem with blogging like exercise is that when you stop doing it i ll just take a break for a week or maybe 10 days is that you start to get all log jammed there s so many things to say that you just don t even know where to start back up again so then weeks turn into months many months it sort of becomes embarrassing when friends from the blog world stop by and of course they are far too polite to say so what have you done since last uh october but one wonders if they think it so i ve been thinking about the qualities of the blogs that i really love the ones that whenever they update and well they do update a lot that i really look forward to reading what do they have in common they re short usually they have a sense of humor not captain comedy humor but i feel good when i visit they focus on small things not big elaborate art trips or fancy classes or showing off this and that because even if you don t want to show off sometimes when you only blog about the big things maybe it comes out that way i don t want to be that blogger so i m going to try it that way for a bit see if i can update more often see if i can just show you the little things that quite thrill me like my new succulents see them above i ve always wanted to grow them ever since i was a kid and loved my welsh grandmother s rock garden where i d hide out under the bushes and pet the plants so far they seem to be doing ok i ve added some choice crystals to their bowl because they might just help the plants feel more positive vibes i want them to be happy plants posted by jane b at tuesday march 20 2012 5 comments tuesday october 18 2011 textural bliss this past saturday i had the pleasure of taking a textured acrylic painting class with the always lovely and gracious sarah whitmire and her charming husband jarred at the jeanine taylor folk art gallery in sanford fl i ve been dabbling with acrylic paints for years haven t we all but never did a lot with texturing mediums as well they are rather expensive and who knows what you ll like and not like and go what was i thinking about who knew they are so cool it was a very full seven hours of class went by in a flash we first drew our paintings onto the canvas then did some vintage paper collaging then started laying in textures to our heart s content as you can tell i went rather van gogh inspired i feel a certain kinship with vincent as do so many of us i think overwhelmed at times by beauty struggling with doubt driven by the need to create and did a painting of my favorite flowers the mighty french sunflower god i love sunflowers i love their big happy faces and their liveliness and of course it had to be rendered with turquoise and teal and robin s egg blue because i m all geeky over these colors i practically hunger for them who knows which colors i ll want to taste next year but for this year it s all about the warm ocean colors and then there s a bird of course there s a bird my artwork always has a bird in it somewhere they represent the muses and guides and the bird has lots of eggs around the outside of the gallery canvas because we mixed media artists have lots of little art eggs all nurturing along in our nests at the same time don t we anyway back to the story we laid in our textures and then went to lunch an eminently sensible thing to do with all that creative energy pouring out at the yummy gourmet 2 go restaurant which is one of those restaurants that i wish we had on every corner as opposed to mediocrity and a guaranteed indifferent chain meal i love restaurants where the chef is a real chef he knows his knifework he selects his own produce and he s proud of it in another life i worked in the high end catering business for five years i do appreciate my vittles no doubt about it superb creamy celery soup and a tuna melt with a twist to die for with a nice glass of chardonnay i wish my lunches during the week were as good extra good as i got to eat with good friends and new friends why is time spent with the art tribe so magical and so rare it s like a champagne that should just pour every day so downtown sanford is one of these wonderful little examples of little victorian downtown revival and it has reinvented itself gloriously from derelict buildings and general malaise to a thriving bohemian art gallery filled creative space it has a nice little farmer s market six or seven art galleries a paint your own pottery place a crystals shop a faerie eco hippy clothing shop and a tribal bellydance cafe all in a couple of blocks and the truly fab taylor folk art gallery i wish all galleries were as accessible as friendly as welcoming and as just plain inspiring as this one i ll post more photos about this soon so we get back from lunch miraculously texture has dried and if not it can be helped along with your trusty heat gun off to the painting and the layering of paint after paint and washes and just general fun sarah really shares her art knowledge with this one and inspired us all to go outside of our creative boxes and let loose she manages to pull off grungy yet still cute and attractive as few others can now i m a big fan of the online class that s for sure but once in a while it s a great thing to be able to take an actual live class with an art tribe it refills the well make a promise to yourself to treat yourself once in a while if at all possible it s juicy and soul inspiring posted by jane b at tuesday october 18 2011 5 comments monday september 5 2011 weekend checklist about this time on sunday night in this case monday i tend to have these little mental reviews did i spend my time meaningfully this weekend did i do my chores did i do more art than chores washed laundry and put away check listed relics of former hobbies on ebay check if you need model horses i have a few sketched yep four pages of dachshunds and one sushi lunch waiter asked if i still wanted my soup as i hadn t eaten it i m too busy drawing it you craven vizigoth i don t care if it s cold i ve watercoloring to do no sense of the aesthetic here i m quite sure in paris this would not happen did my mom s banking mom has alzheimers so i get to deal with dreaded math a few times a month always depressing worked in my travel journals painted backgrounds printed out some photos wrote some things in support of my nick bantock spain journal for some reason this book intimidates me a bit how do you capture one of the most amazing experiences of your life in a little book with mere photos guess that s why it s taken me a year and a half to get started not sure if it will in any way represent but it certainly won t if i don t do anything it all feeling slightly emboldened slightly knitting knitted three rows wooo hoo mastery of the needles is surely obvious swept house dirt begone take that sand long artsy discussion with husband the musician i may be creating the artwork for his band s album or whatever they call it now they have albums still i guess so on balance an adequate mix of the sublime and the ridiculous it was a success posted by jane b at monday september 05 2011 2 comments sunday august 28 2011 a further foray into watercolors so i ve really been getting into trying to stretch my drawing talents a bit further and well what s the fun in not adding some color to them it is probably stretching it a bit to try to learn two skills at once but you can t really do much watercolor without drawing and at least the sketching end of drawing looks a bit empty without watercolors so there we are i thought i d share with you the drawings i did this week i m really pleased with how they are coming out no i didn t happen to find myself in b...
