Okay. I had a side project going that has NOTHING to do with printmaking…painting…drawing…etc. I was working on a crazy felted sweater. I JUST FINISHED IT. I was so excited, that I put it on, even though it is still DAMP! I’m so thrilled with it…even though I know that most people will ask me why I am wearing what looks to be just a big pile of yarn. Philistines! It’s wooly poetry… perhaps in an e.e.cummings sort of way. What do you think? Too crazy? Not crazy enough? I have no problem wearing this…I just wonder how many birds will be following me…trying to collect scaps for building their nest. Please excuse that I could not wait to photograph it tomorrow in daylight…so, here I am in the downstairs bathroom…

i love how creative you are…and how much fun you’re having. although, it looks like you’re wearing your skin inside out:) crazy? who cares. as long as you like it and are confident wearing it…
Comment by le vu February 9, 2011 @ 10:16 pmGross! Inside out skin? Hmmmm…I’m going to stick to thinking that it looks like “an autumn colorfest”. Yes, the fine line between creative and crazy…this one may have stepped over! 🙂
