Glass dresses

I saw that A Dress a Day was updated, so I surfed over to see what she was talking about.  Oh Wow.  Today’s entry was a glass dress sculpture by Karen LaMonte.  I’m partly linking the website here so I can remember where it was, because I want to go back and spend more time looking.   She makes lifesize cast glass sculptures of dresses (among other things).  They aren’t just dresses that are hanging on a hanger — they look like someone was just in them — all the shape and movement that you would expect it to have if there was a body inside.   One of the funniest things I saw in my quick visit was a clothesline of the Emperor’s New Clothes — all made of glass.

Instagram post 2198318837210935461_15732201 The prompt was the free writing — I used an inktenae pencil to journal about a decision that we are trying to make, scribbled in layers and in different directions. And then I spritzed it’s with too much water, so I blotted with a paper towel. And TBH, this is exactly what the decision making process looks like. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal #getmessyartjournal #suzannegetsmessy

Instagram post 2197690835112539827_15732201 This was an experiment. My eyes were closed and I slowly moved the pencil across the page while I was breathing following a pattern.(I used my other hand to feel where the edges of the page were so that I didn’t fall off, so to speak). It was interesting. I might try something like this again, but with some modifications. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal

Wasn’t entirely sure what to do with it, but decided that just sticking it on the page and writing around it was enough! #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal

This is my reminder that a good artist never blames her tools, but it sure is nice having really great tools. (I got Pfeil palm set C, plus one extra) #carvedecember #thepainteddiaries#suzanne_365
