'WOYWW - 11-16-11: My First Ever Textile Art Commission!'

by Mary Lou 'LuLu' Haynes

Howdy and welcome!

For WOYWW this week, I'm working on my very first textile art commission!

Stay tuned for textile project details when it's completed. After I finish this commission, my next project is a fiber art piece -I can't wait to finish it. I can't sleep, I'm so excited thinking about it!

Have you ever worked or played with textiles? What's your fave luxury fabric? Do you ever use exotic/novelty yarns in your work? any ribbons? Nowadays, I am loving ribbons!

Don't forget to see my 2nd Blogoversary FREEBIES post! See more artist studios here at WOYWW.

Thanks for stopping by - and please come back soon.

Peace,

LuLu

Art show, Dreamworks and Dragonfly painting!

Howdy and Welcome,

Good News!
The dates for my rescheduled art show have been confirmed with the gallery. What a roller coaster ride this has been for me... Hope you can come see my art show in 2011. See the right sidebar on my blog for details.

Meanwhile, I'm prepping for an all week 'retreat' at a scrapbooking store next week and also organizing my entries for an annual art/literary contest due soon.

Here are some digital images I worked on this week. They're based on my original painting I worked on when I went to Los Angeles a couple years ago to house sit for some artist friends.

I also was able to arrange some meetings at Dreamworks Animation Studios while I was in California at that time. (Dreamworks makes THE BEST movies!) Didn't get the job at Dreamworks, but they showed me around on a tour of thir lovely campus - and also gave me a souvenir of my visit!

Can't decide which one I like the most - they were both so much fun to play with in PSE and MS DIC. Which is your favorite?

Thanks for visiting and please stop by again soon!

Peace,
