Building an ark...







......not really.......but Atlanta has been experiencing unbelievable amounts of rainfall recently. We've had a nice few sunny days, but the rains are returning again. It's starting to feel like a rainforest and I've given up fighting the weeds until next Spring.


We took down the Fiber Art Fusion show today where I had my sea creature pieces and scarf and now I am preparing two silk pieces for a show outside the Washington DC area for silk painters.


I will also have 3 pieces in the Instructor's Show at Chastain Arts Center in Atlanta in a few weeks. One of the pieces that will be there is the Wisteria Kimono.




Fall Classes in Silk Dye Painting will start in early October for a long 9-10 weeks depending on the day. It's just the right amount of time to immerse onself in learning how to silk dye. There are way too many techniques to cover it all in 10 weeks, though. For classes please go to www.ocaatlanta.com or call the Chastain Arts Center at (404) 252-2927.
