Something new.

Much too long since last post...computer down!

none the less, more to come soon: life drawing, belgian binding book.

cool discovery while blog surfing: Donna Sharrett


Excerpt from her artist statement:


"I consider my works meditations on the beauty of rituals developed over time to satisfy the fundamental human need to mark important passages in life. Cultural and religious mementos from both historic and contemporary references inspire the work. Materials are chosen for their symbolic significance."


I mean, c'mon people. If nothing else, it's gorgeous! The immaculate needle work and use of materials has a nice marriage. And I love the reference to cultural development. Interesting.
