Behind the Scenes
After nestling in my cocoon for awhile, I have started a new series of works based on the piece entitled Life on the Edge. My blog post about this piece is actually entitled “Small Beginnings” because, at the time, I felt that there would be more to say on the same subject. And there is!
The other day I purchased two sheets of two-inch-thick Wedi board to use as a substrate for new floor sculptures. I am currently making a wall sculpture and have plans for a small free-standing sculpture on a similar theme. I have purchased more stained glass from Blue Moon Glassworks, and have collected rocks locally, and have even taken a broom and dustpan up the street to collect loose asphalt gravel and broken safety glass. I LOVE mixing materials!
I thought you might like to see some behind-the-scenes art-making in my garage studio. Making art can be so much more than being inspired and sitting down at an easel. (You can use your cursor over the photos to find the button to advance each picture when you are ready for it.)

very cool Lynn! Can’t wait to see what you make!!!
Hi, Greta. Thanks for stoppin in! I have been on a sort of internet diet for awhile, but I’m making a stab at it again!
I love the slideshow, Lynn! What a teaser!
Oh, Hannah, there might be yet another teaser or two: even though I am steadily cutting glass for my series, I am finishing up some other unrelated projects in order to get them off my largest studio table, which I need for the big stuff. Love those horizontal surfaces!
Fun post! I love the slide show… Can I ask what the plug-in is you are using for that? I might just have to try it out some time.
Claudine, the slide show is a new feature on wordpress.com. (If it were a plug-in, chances are that I would not know about it, nor know how to install it! :=)
Great slide show Lynn – I haven’t seen that slide show on wordpress. I’ll have to check it out – great idea! I use wordpress.org as I host my own website – so not sure if its available thru that platform.
Thanks, Kadira. Yeah, I don’t know about wordpress.org, but it would be convenient for you if the slideshow is an option.
