Oh, #artadventcalendar, how I've missed you!

Here's a something for the eyes: high up in the Warner Mountains above Modoc country, northeastern California
Bright yellow aspen leaves against a vibrantly blue sky, their trunks bright white and the ground litter with fallen leaves.

I count your promises on my finger bones
and note you've broken every one.
An illustration of three stylized deer running in panic, each with a necklace of thorns around their necks, with the rightmost deer's collar having been broken. The entire image is framed by threads tied into knots. In the center is a black circle with a drawing of a dilapidated house and a red figure in its doorway, laid over a drawing of a locket. Finger bones are scattered across the image, along with a wedding ring placed at the appropriate junction.

I missed the first day of #ArtAdventCalendar and I can't 'bear' to miss any more!

This piece is called 'Aurora Bear'.

#art #pottery #ceramics #raku #bear #ArtAdventCalendar
A raku fired ceramic bear in greens, reds and metallics as an homage to the aurora. The bear is facing almost head on, with one paw in front of the other. A view of the same raku fired bear, slightly to the side. A view of the bear during the raku firing process.

A close up of entrelac or basket-weave style knitting in variegated wool yarn, gently transitioning between various shades of green. The effect is reminiscent of a dappled forest floor

All right, tonight's inventory selections. Let's sell some earrings!

Today's feature is a pair [shown below] with old smoky Bisbee cabs framed in silvery light ["nickel silver," the only non-sterling ones].

We have eight other pairs with stones in larger silver settings.

Now that the groom has given this to the bride, I can share what I did last month: Art quilt of the entrance to the Grafton Inn, where they were married. Approx 30 by 30 inches.
Art quilt of the entrance to the Grafton Inn, Grafton, Vermont. A brick building with white trim, white 2nd floor balcony, green chairs on the porch, stone steps and iron railing to the door. A thistle design on the door (for the bride) and an arrow for the groom (a runner), and their names and wedding date quilted into the bushes in front of the porch. Made by Linda Diak.

Based upon images from Gearrannan Blackhouse Village, Isle of Lewis. Oil on Fabriano, 70 x 100cm

#oilpainting #scotland #isleoflewis #outerhebrides
Coastal scene of historic thatched cottages on the Scottish islands: sketchy mess of grasses and scattered snow in the foreground, 2 cottages nestled into the landscape, with headland and rough sea beyond. Simple grey sky and limited palette of browns, blues, greys and splashes of orange.

Fox watched the snowfall, utterly captivated. She could watch forever, her mind drifting along with the snowflakes as they floated and fell with each whisper of wind. Well, maybe not for too long actually, she was getting pretty chilly and quite fancied curling up somewhere warm.

The techniques used for this fabric have created an ethereal, dreamlike effect across an expanse of skirt. The plain weave silk taffeta is warp printed, hence the blurry butterfly effect, then finished with a moiré surface. Pure #1860s magic @lacma.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
The back of an expansive dove grey silk crinoline gown with a short sleeve bodice and a wide bell shaped skirt. The fabric is printed with a blurry pattern of butterflies and foliage A side view of the butterfly patterned crinoline which shows the shape and size of the skirt front and back and the tassel trimmed sleeves A close up of the air of the bodice of the butterfly patterned crinoline which focuses on the ivory coloured silk tassels that dangle from the edge A detail of the butterfly patterned silk from which the broad crinoline dress is made. It shows the blurry effect of the warp printing

BEYOND THE VEIL (2023)
Acrylic on Canvas - 6 ¼” x 6 ¼”

This began as an abstract color experiment. I had no particular subject in mind until I recalled a drawing in my sketchbook. Staring at a darkly swathed figure earlier that day, I felt that she’d been waiting for a painting to float into. 1/2
A woman in dark robes holds her hands crossed over her chest as she floats upward from a planet toward a warm splash of color at the edge of the panel left. The color patterns of the planet—rendered in white, blue, and green—and the warm space beyond are abstract swirls and bubbles. Her hood is up, exposing only the pale skin of her face, and her eyes are closed as if deep in meditation. Purple trim trails the hem of the long gap of her sleeves. Two other figures ascend behind her.

LEAP OF FAITH (2002)
Acrylic on Panel - 11” x 10”

The smallest of the Faded Star series. 1/2
A low angle, slightly tilted perspective looking up an immense chamber. The walls of segmented concrete are dilapidated and filthy. As light shines down into the cavernous space, a solitary figure leaps off his makeshift perch into open air with arms spread wide. Below, a flock of doves stirs with the commotion, fluttering up through the chamber.
