Splendor

Lynn and I went to the Smithsonian Craft Exhibition at the Building Museum this afternoon. I was able to persuade her to try on this lovely ($900!!) jacket, which fit her perfectly . Its maker, Starr Hagenbring, had no business cards, which totally scandalized me. (If I ever manage to make it into a prestigious show like this one, please feel free to kick me firmly in the butt if I don't have cards in my stall to hand out to admirers!)

Textile Design Insanity

I've just been playing around like a crazy girl! Is there no end to my madness???

No, drugs were not involved. I'm just seeing how outrageous I'm willing to be. (I betcha you haven't seen anything quite like it before, though, have you?) You're going to want to check out the large version to appreciate the full lunacy of this image.

Note to self: Get a computer that can handle these large computational tasks with some grace, would you please? Because doing even a half-assed job on these with a feeble machine is downright aggravating.)

Pear, Transformed

Another textile design, based on the Lyric Pear.
