The Last Light

I only have  one light  left  from my series” Light From War”.

 Each  light is a one of a kind original , the  core is  made from  old  cases  that  were used to  store  large military howitzer shells during  1944-1946.   The  bases and tops are  old  car parts.

The last light can be found at  http://www.shoptastyart.com/#/home/

Color of actual  lighting  is easily swapped  out.  Lights from War  are  great conversation  pieces  and can  also  be used as a tall  corner  table. Each light  comes with a  glass top and have been  clear coated.

If you  buy a  piece of evergirl art from Shop Tasty, I am happy to  deliver it to your home .

 

 

What do you see?

A friend posted this photo on facebook and said, ” can you find the cat? Don’t share the  photo until you see the cat.” After looking for almost 30 minutes I had to ask for help.

What I see is at least  4  car part tables, three bird baths and plenty of  parts to  create other peices of art.

What  do you  see? Do you  see the cat?

Everyone has a ‘risk muscle’. You keep it in shape by trying new things. If you don’t, it atrophies.Make a point of  using it at least once a day. -Roger Von OechI have been working  on doing things that are a bit  outside my comfort zone .By forcing myself to  meet new people and  try  new things I feel like I am  expanding my  own horizons . Over the  past few weeks I have been  spending Sundays with  artist Teresa Harstper where she has been walking me through the steps of making  mosaics.

Here is photo of the  fantastic face Teresa is working on. 

Teresa works in  metal, glass and  photography, you can  see more of her work at  www.artsyfartsywelding.com

 

 

Seattle Artist’s Help Stroke Victims in the UK!

“Art washes from the soul the dust of everyday life.” ~ Pablo Picasso


Along with a few other Seattle Art Link members I am  particapating in an  Auction  for  Stroke victims taking  place in  Stoke-on-Trent December 7, 2011. This will be my  first  event to  participate in  outside the  United States. We  will be mailing a box to England this week. I wish I was   able to  go in person!

The Stroke Art Cafe are a support group in Stoke-on-Trent for those affected by stroke. As a non-profit group they rely on fundraising and donations to help keep the group stocked with art supplies and equipment. 100% from the auction will go to the group.

For more information  about the  auction or  about the non  profit visit, Stroke Art Cafe Art therapy  can really do amazing things !

I  promise to  add some photos of the  Art  we send  from Seattle later this week!
