As some of you may know, I love lichen! So here is some eye candy from Monday's hike. I especially love the chartreuse green contrasted with the orange that's going on here. I don't make work that calls for the use of lichen glazes but I am tempted to with inspiration like this. And if I had any idea what to do with felting or textile media I would somehow incorporate this. Hmmm, maybe I should go back to Penland for a textiles class. Just sayin'.
All the textures here are just so incredible!
I was feeling quite nostalgic for all the flowers that are planted around the Penland campus, especially outside Lily Loom. Then I took a morning walk and found all of these beauties right in my own neighborhood. Too bad pictures can't convey the smell of all the flowers that are in bloom right now!
Ah, but lest you think that the last few days have been all fun and games, I have been knee deep in the shipping and receiving department, otherwise known as the spare room. Today I got eight of the nine boxes I shipped from Penland. I'm going to have to research that ninth one. Now I have about 50 items to ship out that are rewards for my Kickstarter project. Let the fun commence:)
