A Mouse Day

My desk is filled to overflowing with critters in all stages of development...they are everywhere...there is no more room to work...they are sitting on shelves, on the floor, in boxes, nooks and crannies. "Cranny" what a strange word now that I think of it!

cran·ny

ˈkranē/

noun

1. A small, narrow space or opening. Synonyms - Chink, crack, crevice, split, fissure, rift, cleft, opening, gap, aperture, cavity, hole, hollow, niche, corner, nook, interstice.

Holy Cow...who woulda thought one little word could be so many things. Interesting tidbit for the day...onward and forward. 

I'm in a bit a panic cause I have signed up to be in our local Art Crawl this October...so I need to get lots of critters ready...it won't be a sale but rather a display of my work. This is something I've never done in all my years of creating these characters...I've shown my paintings and mixed media pieces but not my little characters..it will be fun to see what folks think. I have to say that I am a bit nervous about getting enough pieces completed so that it will be full and interesting...having to create a show is very motivating! 

With all this work my back is hunched, my fingers are sore and I am in dire need of massage and a chiropractic adjustment. Meanwhile I will continue to work...I have whole herd of mice that need grooming.

Helloooo out thereeee...

Yup...its me...my last post was in February 2015. Its taken me a long time to get my act together...I am pleased to report that although I am a bit rusty in the creativity department...it seems that making stuff is like riding a bicycle...you never forget! 

Fuzz has again started flying...and all of my long forgotten characters are breathing a BIG sigh of relief..."Its a miracle" they have proclaimed..."We will no longer be naked and afraid...we will be painted and given new homes...Hip Hip Hooray!"

It feels pretty good to be stitchin and sewin and dreamin. I have avoided getting busy, avoided the work...but maybe...just maybe there was a benefit to all of this idleness. Some time to breath, to store up creative energy. Some time to reflect and ponder life and what it means to me.
