Winter Shows , Holiday Market Place at the OSU-MU
















Come and visit all the fine Artists Friday and Saturday , don't forget to check out the Gallery windows in the concourse upstairs. 



I can also accept credit cards now, thanks to this small business tool,


This will be my first show using it so I will let you all know how well it works. There was a ton of vendors using this at Fall Festival. It looks very convenient .

Another Preview before, Friday and Saturday's show.


Another crane with an different "face", I was in such a rut with the faces I make out of mower blade guards , I didn't end up using any this time around. 


It is so cold and miserable and rainy right now I had to move my photo session into the shop( not that it is any warmer, just drier.) I think I should stick with Spring/ Summer shows for Welded Art. And stick to my Quilting in Winter, Brrrrrrrr.
I have been sneaking some Quilt projects into my Schedule, our Harlan Quilt Group has a challenge fabric this year I will reveal after our Holiday Luncheon. I have been taking pictures just can not post yet.




I have a set of Pool balls that I salvaged from a table my hubby was tearing apart. I have been dying to use them, and finally have got it down how to include them in my welded art. They bring such a great splash of color, to an otherwise mono-chromatic medium. I had to go back and add one to this long legged birdie. If you look back at an older post you will see him without his "ball".



I also had to make a new snail just to use a pool ball.


The Salmon run up the river just behind my studio, so it is always fun to make a new fish, this one has and hand forged antique hook on it's tail.


Well back outside tomorrow to brave the cold and finish up a couple  of fern sketch's, and a mushroom sign. Then get finish packing for Friday and Saturday's show at OSU.


I just had to add a sneak peak of the challenge fabric, nobody can guess what this is.
