Here's some new work that will be appearing at my favourite show; Ladyfest's much anticipated Not Yer Grandma's Craftsale - it's a great time, with tons of unique and beautiful locally produced art, craft and design.
Here are the details;
Not Yer Grandma's Craftsale
Location: Jack Purcell Community Centre, 320 Jack Purcell Ln, off Elgin St
I am a textile artist, painter and mom living in Ottawa, Canada. I have two gorgeous little girls who require most of my attention. Whatever energy is left over goes into producing STUFF for pinkwagon. I try hard to make silk purses out of sow's ears. Well, you know, not literally. Please.
I mean that I like to upcycle, make the formerly disposable into something pretty and useful.
About every 5 minutes, I think I should get a government job, straighten out and fly right. Sometimes I wish I could get prettied up and go to work. Then I remember how valuable and important the work of other artists is to me, and I get my nose to the grindstone.
