Just after receiving successful jurying results from next November's Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show, my work experiences a surge in sales at the Grovewood Gallery in Asheville and receives an invitation to a fiber show called Deep Stitch at 567 Center for Renewal in Macon, Georgia. I'm short on artwork!
Last week I delivered twelve pieces to the show in Macon, Georgia. This coming weekend, I'll be delivering work to Asheville ... including more than half of these new "In Box Series" pieces. I'll be in my studio soon making even more. Thank goodness I love what I do!
The first four pieces are "medium sized". They fit perfectly into a standard 16" x 20" frame even though, of course, my husband custom builds all my frames. Nevertheless, 16" x 20" is a good size. Glass comes in this dimension, and a standard 32" x 40" mat board provides four backing boards without any waste.
The eight pieces below are my "small size". In these photos, the two sizes might seem similar but one is definitely smaller than the other. Naturally, the smaller ones are less expensive. They sell twice as quickly as the larger ones. Thus, I always make more of them ... and I'll need even more before going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show. Two are in Georgia; four go to the Grovewood ... leaving me only two. I've got to get busy, busy, busy! Studio, here I come!
