back to my roots

this has been a summer of going back to my roots.

i studied pottery in college and thought that was how i would spend my days. however, i got a little sidetracked and making clothing and accessories took over. so now i'm back to let you know i can really shake 'em down..... er.. uh... i mean... to let you see some of my new ceramic goodness.

above is one of my new signature stamps (or signets as i like to call them). they will be stamped on all of my new ceramic work with or with out my written signature. i haven't decided yet. so stay tuned cuz i've got a whole lot of ceramic goodness coming your way.

there's lots more pictures on my flickr

diary project 2009

i was one of 365 artists who participated in this year's diary project 2009.

each artist was given one page to design anyway they wish. these diary/journals will be for sale later this year. i'll be sure to post when they are available!

see more artist entries on the flickr group!

what's the delio kanye?

i really knew nothing about kanye west until i went to bonnaroo last month and heard everyone talking of the kanye west fiasco. rumors of what happened the night before filled the campground on sunday. everything from "he said he wouldn't go on stage unless phil (lesh) got off stage" to "he wasn't even here until 4am". i almost felt a little sorry for him.

fast forward to the day before yesterday when i picked up a miami new times and saw the above advertisement in the first couple of pages. wtf?! i totally don't get it. i even went as far as going to the website and i still don't get it. maybe that is the entire intention. there's even an infomercial on youtube. maybe it's because i don't have tv and don't get pelted with advertising and pop culture and thus don't have a clue.

can anyone enlighten me?

sunday crafternoon

i spent last weekend with some of miami's craftiest ladies as part of the miami artisans guild's sunday crafternoon. beanblossom was the host and chose the project of the day.

recycled shoe art.

i restyled these yummy leather boots. they will be sold in the mag etsy store in the near future and all of the proceeds will go to charity.

created with:
old leather boots
acrylic paint
martha stewart glitter

first off i painted the bottom section with red paint.while that was drying i found perhaps the most fabulous turquoise iridescent paint in the whole entire world and started in on the upper boot. i really didn't look too closely at what the pattern was up there i just started painting. back to the bottom section again... i used some sort of flexible mod podgeish type stuff but it wasn't mod podge... it was something else.... and sprinkled them with a lovely and ultra fine red glitter by martha stewart. lastly, i added some dots to the upper turquoise paint in just a shade lighter turquoise than the rest of the design. i don't think i'm done yet. they seem to need just a little bit more. i'm thinking swarovski crystals up the side and something flashy all the way around the bottom where the glitter meets the sole.
