Screen printing

I am working on a small collection of screen printed t- shirts and bags  for my etsy store and maybe a local shop as well. I already have some listed and more are in the works. These are from last weeks efforts. I love the misty blues that come out of the dye wash, looks almost like watercolor to me.

I am also doing some hand painted one of a kind pieces (also up on etsy). They are very time consuming but I really enjoy doing them so will continue making them whenever I have the time.

I generally use up-cycled tops for the hand painted tops.

 

Art studio tidy.

Woke up with the irrefutable urge to clean out and tidy my studio today. I pulled everything apart and even got into the back of the high up cupboard. Got rid of lots of cardboard and packaging stuff and then wrapped up all my finished paintings nice and safe. Unfortunately because I live in the tropics I cant have paintings standing around exposed were I can see them for long periods of time because spiders cockroaches and silverfish are all very keen to poop on them. Then i fixed the ivy decoration and hung up a mini lantern. Everything is so tidy and even more wonderfully welcoming and inspiring now. I lust love my studio it a really nice space to work..

   

Its been a very long time but it looks like we are back up and running. Thanks for your patience with all these tec problems. So much has happend since I was last able to update on this blog. I think rather than try to recall a whole year I'll just share a couple of new art pictures and turn to the future.
If all goes well I should be posting regularly again from now on. I'm so glad, I really didn't want to give up on this blog, they become like little story books of life that are hard to leave behind.

Problems

Hello .
I have been unable to upload any pictures to this blog for some time now. It is very frustrating and so far I cant find an answer. If you are interested in what I have been up to please head over to my facebook  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sugita-Wahl-Art/135355266475048. It is not as visually pleasing but at least it works. I am not giving up on this blog yet but I am starting to worry that I might have to.

Dragonfly craft fair.

Yesterday I had a stall at the Dragonfly craft fair with my friend. It was a lot of fun even though I don't think it was quite my sort of audience. May do the next one none the less..

 

 

                                         I am very pleased with the tops I made for the fair, kind of want to     

keep them all for myself.

 

                                           One of my favourite tops.

                      All my glasses in my studio the day before. I've got more ideas I want to try  with           these so I think I'll focus on glasses at the next fair and keep the cloth for the rave shop.
