artist's way open studio (february)

by gl. at 1:13 am

overbooking worked: we set up for 10 but ended up with 7.5 -- the .5 being the 5-year old who outcollaged all of us put together! it was active but didn't feel frantic or constricted. met some very nice people i hope to see again, and someone even dropped in to film us for her documentary film class! sven did a great job helping me set up and entertaining monica's daughter by teaching her about zombies and butoh dancing.

i'm fond of this piece: i did a citrisolve transfer of a star map over the spiderweb raindrops, and though this is a simple collage, i find its colors, composition & juxtaposition to be very effective.

next month marks the one-year anniversary of hosting artist's way open studio. hooray! i can't believe it's been so long, and yet it feels like i've been doing this forEVER. i've sure gotten a lot of cards out of it!
