Hey T!
I LOVE your new Vintage Metro Elements line!! Such stunning work! I was bowled over when I checked your blog and saw the images. As always, even your photographs are works of art in and of themselves!
So glad to hear from you, and thanks for stopping by my blog to visit! Glad you like how the twin entrelac afghans came out :). You hit the nail right on the head when you asked about the frustration that comes with balancing flying trips for work and the absolute yearning to create. It's a struggle that I'm battling all the time! That's why I take so much time off from work, so that I can be at home in my design studio ;)!
Hi Cindy!
Thank you, thank you! I've done kind of a crazy thing -- this:
http://www.zazzle.com/glimmersmith
It's actually a venue to sell prints, cards, mugs, stuff like that, with photographs of jewelry that I've turned into artwork (me? obsessed with jewelry? never! heh), so that you give such praise means a lot to me. Thank you. :c)
I really love your creations and only wonder what you'd be pumping out if you weren't working so much, because your drive to create is palpable. I know I get the same way when life keeps me from creating for any length of time. Even if I have to stay up late to do it, or maybe put off something else I really need to do, sometimes I just have to create something that is just for me (even if I don't keep it) -- something I've been seeing in my mind's eye or have down on paper. It's a relief when I do. It must be for you, too, when you finally get the chance.
Every time I fly I think of you and look for you. LOL And I sometimes look at the flight attendant's jumpseat for a moment and picture you there with your yarn, impossibly creating something whilst thousands of feet in the air and on the job. Silly, isn't it? Still, it's true. :c)
