I'm Expecting a Great Week!
Thursday the Evolution Team for the Art Meets Fashion project has our third meeting.
I've researched collaboration and I think I have a pretty good idea of how I'd like to work with the other team members. Now, I'm sketching, writing down all of my ideas, researching the historical relevance of evolution as it pertains to fiber, and fiber arts.
The intern and I went to PF Changs for dinner last night. Because she has a 9 month training program in London coming up, I'm attempting to help her with social skills. Might come in handy, after training the intern will work in an upscale salon on cruise ships.
Sunday, I have a wrap up dinner for the follow up stage of the census enumeration.
Fabric wise, the first two pieces in the Harriet Tubman quotation series are ready for words. These pieces have been dyed using a resist process, block printed and hand painted. Next comes layout for the quotes and then the words will be hand painted onto the fabric. I originally thought I was going to quilt these pieces, but they are getting visually complicated. After I get the words on, I think I'll hang the work up for awhile and revisit quilting.
The garden is undergoing a few changes. The bermuda grass has finally gotten to me. Cleaning out all of the grass and weeds. I'm going to amend the soil once again, then build some very simple planter boxes. I'll buy organic plants from City Farmer for my summer crops and start some seeds for the fall and winter crops. I took some pictures of the beautiful raised beds at the KROC Center intergenerational garden. Look for the edited images sometime this week.
Feeling harmonious and in balance - a little employment, a little collaboration, some art, some gardening, and a little bit of partying. A great week.
