Silly things

I love watching the birds. This morning while my husband was sleeping I decided to make a bird feeder. This only  took a  couple minutes: I am calling her  Queen of the Bird Seed.

 All  you  need to  make a  fun feeder is an old barbie or a pine cone, peanut butter and  bird seed.

Take a  butter  knife and  cover the barbie or pine cone with peanut butter.  Then  pour some bird seed on a cookie sheet and roll  Barbie or a pine cone in the  bird seed.

You  will  need to find a  string of some kind to wrap around the top. I used a  string form an old conference  badge.

Here is short  video of Barbies first  suitor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taSDlLF7ZPU&feature=share he has a  foot fetish.

 

Evergirl art and friends!

A few of my welding buddies at  Green River Community College have been working on some special  projects for a fundraiser this weekend .

The piece I created for this event  was inspired by something my  grandmother  used to  say to me.  ”Flowers bloom where they find room and this is true for people too.”  I started by taking a  World  War ll Howlizter  missile storage container and a couple  car parts ,   turning it into a budding  blooming  bouquet of light!

Light by Cynthia  Freese

Greg Bartol  from  Studio  B  has contributed a copper bird for the  auction

Jack Danielson  made a  one of a kind  custom coat rack,

Donovan made a really cool bench

There are hundreds of items that will be auctioned off!

I love receiving  photos of things I have created in their new homes! Yesterday I received this note from Joyce, who resides in Texas!

“Here is the temporary home for your artwork- my wine buffet. A friends son is getting married on March 17- St Pat’s and the reception is at a bowling alley so your art will be the centerpiece in Dallas.”

It really  looks lovely on her  wine table!  If you are interested in having a  cork  ball of your  own just give me a shout!

1/2 the  money raised  from  my cork  ball project  will  be donated to a  food bank.

Facing My Fears!

Last month I was one of  20 artists that was invited  to participate as a  Seattle Raw Artist. The experience was a  ton of  fun! I got to meet artists, art lovers , migle with some  friends and I even sold  a few  pieces!

I don’t enjoy being in front of a  camera and  speaking in front of an audience is something I  prefer to  leave to  others!   UM! Here is a  my  interview with some shots of my work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGtnYxZUzB0&list=PLCF3130FAB8695622&index=4&feature=plpp_video

I was put on  stage and asked  questions I had no clue what I was  going to be asked.

They  edited out the questions.
 You can’t  fail if you don’t  try!  Thanks  RAW Art  for  giving me the  opportunity to share !

Auction for the Nachtsheim Family Fund

The welding instructor at Green River Community College  recently asked me contribute a few things for a fundraiser. I will be contributing a light or two from my series, Light  From War, and I will also be donating a cork bowling ball for the auction and  some wine bottle bud vases!

There are hundreds of items that will be auctioned off and after the Auction there will be plenty of time to go grab a beer!

Wine bottles are still a work in  progress and I am currently working on two of the lights as the light in this  photo has sold.
