I have to thank Hilary Metcalf for her comment on yesterday's post that led me to the images and an interview with the late artist, Rosalie Gascoigne, that resonated with me so much that I went in search of a longer interview. I feel cheated that I never knew about her or her work. Also, I promised to give you a link to the place where I found the 6" squeegees. Earl Mich company - and when you do a search, you need to misspell the word as "squeegie." I have enough of them to keep me for a while, and yesterday a big box of syringes arrived: probably enough for the next ten years. I'll just add them to inventory with the 41 lbs of soy wax and 8 rolls of batting - LOL. I took two rolls to the studio and put one of them up on my design wall so now it is nice and clean. Besides that, my other big accomplishment was making my jeans into wearable art, so to speak. I had spilled paint in various places and they just looked grubby. Now you can't tell where the spots were and I can get away with them. Here is one of my favorite aphorisms -- it was probably in a fortune cookie. Did some deconstructed printing on a couple of scarves and played with neocolours on a screen. I normally use base extender when I print the crayons but today I grabbed a bottle of medium by mistake and couldn't get the damn stuff out of the screen because it is acrylic. I won't do THAT again. Finally, my in-process piece went back onto the (nice, clean) wall and is ready to be poked and prodded some more, when I have time. Meanwhile, it will stay there and vegetate. My studio mate, Francesca, was in today and it was lovely to have company in the room for a change. Actually, when I look back at the day, I realize it was pretty productive. How nice!
