So this past week the NWSSA hosted a booth at the Flower & Garden center. I helped run the event and came to the show a few days. I put in 5 pieces. I am almost completely done with the Butterfly I’ve made out of Honeycomb Calcite and I just need to go through once…

Excited because I submitted two entries for the Light & Space Primary Colors exhibition online. Only one of the pieces made it but I’ve entered before for some of their other categories and this is the 1st time I received a positive response, my piece “Red” got a special recognition mention. I’ve really loved this…

So I realize I have not written in some time. I got myself all setup in the studio and we are opening on November 12th. Excited and made a cool little poster for it here. Although I have only done some work recently trying to thin out my honeycomb calcite butterfly and I started working…

Just returned last weekend from the 34th Annual NWSSA Sculpting Symposium. It was really great lots of hard work and I am completely exhausted but worked on a few pieces, made some earrings from Jade and learned about Shou Sugi Ban (basically got to play with fire to darken a wood base). Now that I’m…

I’ve been a bit slammed at work but wanted to share info from last weekend. I drove out and took the Kingston Ferry from Seattle to Port Ludlow. The hotel for the event was very cool and we had a really good turn out for submissions for the rolling pin challenge. Here are some photos…

So I’ve been working on finishing up a rolling pin challenge sculpture. Here are some images of the piece I’m working on. It started as two fingers and I’ve decided it looks much better as 3 fingers. I made a base of cement for the piece as well which I like as a contrast to…

So last Tuesday afternoon I flew out with horrific anxiety. Work had been so much I needed to get away for some art. The symposium was a little less dramatic and hyped up but there were some of the amazing people from both here and all over California. I had someone claim a beautiful piece…

So I started working on a piece for a friend who wanted 3 tier staggered piece. The idea was to start with a gradient background in a few colors while I worked out my plan. The piece kept taking on it’s own space landscape vibe, so instead of fighting it I’m just going to go…

So I’ve decided Etsy is probably the cheapest way to go since I can post items and pay small amounts. I do need to add the rest of my art and maybe just offer drop downs for pieces paired similarly. I’ve purchased a bunch more foam materials and some necklace pendants to create something cool…

So I’ve decided since I get quite small traction with Etsy I’ll try Shopify and link over to it https://aerinsizelove.myshopify.com/ I was trying to carve a rolling pin this week and it split while using my 1 point to add some definition so I’ll put a hold on that until I get a 4 point…
