I decided to show my work in any venue available so I am mounting an exhibit next week in my office cubicle...
I have room for approximately 12 12" wide pieces. I have approximately 15 pieces which meet the size requirements.
In preparation, my first task was to decide on a name for the exhibit. I decided to call it "After Hours" because my office colleagues know me during the work day and my art work is done after work hours. And then to decide how to define my work. I am calling it "fibre art compositions". I made flyers to hang in strategic locations in the office. Then, I made name tags for each piece. Now I just have to gather enough courage to actually carry through and hang the exhibit. The cubicle walls are upholstered so I can attach the pieces by pinning them to the wall. It shouldn't take any time at all.
I would like to sell the pieces on exhibit. So how do I price them? I think I'll be really underpricing at $54 a piece, but that's where I'm leaning. Decisions, decisions.
I finished the FAT "spring" challenge. For me, spring means green. So I made a composition spelling out "spring" in different greens, embellished with green silk flowers, green beads and quilted with green variegated thread. Quite simple in appearance but I'm hoping that less is more.
I also cut out and fused the pieces for an upright matza holder. Hopefully I'll sew it up tomorrow.
My muse is sort of on vacation so I hope it returns soon. I want to make a "quiet book" for Amit before I head to Israel in May.
