progressing


I have been working on this quilt for a year.
My mom has helped me so much along the way. The whole way really.


These pictures don't adequately capture the stages or her instructions.
This is my first quilt.


It's coming along, I worked on it every day of our trip.
I continue to work on it everyday. I am excited for the final product.


Thanks Mom.

Underwater Relics

After I finished using a blowtorch on various metal pieces, I realized that the collection appeared as some sort of underwater excavation.



I remember a summer where Jay and Grace scoured the bottom of the lake and found old stove legs, broken bottles and blue willow china at our cottage.



I was too scared to go so deep.





Next summer instead of just looking completely ethereal and mermaidish....



we could have a really fun photoshoot?

Straight to Work

Andy and I got back from out summer long adventure across the US and back, to an apartment feeling far less than homey - we moved (like the rest of Montreal) on July 1st - and then left for our 2 month trip on the 2nd.



Due to our luxuriously long va-ca.....we both had to get right to work.
I will post trip and new apt pics eventually.



On our new back balcony, I used a blow torch to transform some old metal pieces.



I organized stuff. and made more of it.




These particular shapes are really popular, but I have started exploring with new shapes as well....



come back to see them!

Attempting Marlene Dumas

some wet material studies in the vein of marlene dumas



she like many, is inspired by Diane Arbus.


Marlene Dumas also likes to draw from popular figures. This is an attempt at Karlie Kloss.


Of Grace, my sister.


Another Diane Arbus.



My Great Auntie Di.


Diane Arbus again.
