It's a Ruff life.

Oh, the places you'll go

It was a rainy day on Tatooine,
When I was attacked by a tusked beast.

Spot Removal

Removing stripes from a tiger.  Actually, a cow painted to look like a tiger, with rabbit all around.  So, removing stripes from cowgerabit.

Foam Carving

Not complaining

When your punching beautiful leather while looking at the mountains

And listening to the opera.

Re stemming flowers in the Costume Crafts Shop at the Santa Fe Opera

Excitment in Nelly - ville.

I finished! I finished! I finally finished my feather and fan scarf! I shut off my phone and just knitted for hours. And I'm done!

Better pictures later when I've purchased batteries for my camera. I immediately want to start a new project! Especially because this means I have no projects now. Maybe a turquoise hat with the yarn Nora made me.

In other news, I found a new dress that I want even more!

Its from this cool site full of beautiful vintage dresses. I want it! Why is it that every dress I find on the internet that I want is two hundred dollars? (Also, why is it that these vintage dress sites all look like they were designed in 1998? I can't complain because they bring me pretty and I can't html, but still!) Anyway! love to all and to all a good night!

Labels don't lie.

One Minty Statue Man

For one of the first times at CenterStage, I worked with Will in the dye kitchen. We're doing an independent project together, making a costume for a living statue. He's a judge statue, and he's all bronze, which has worn into mostly patina green. Will dyed a suit and cape yesterday, and today I covered all of it with a watered down mint green acrylic paint.

I totally got a paint headache.

He looks a little sinister doesn't he?
The woman who asked us to do this gave us no insight into why she needed a living judge statue. We're a little worried that it's going to be some sort of weird porn thing, or maybe a presidential assassination attempt. I was really flattered that Will asked me to work on this with him. His job, Craftsperson, is totally the job that I want someday. He gets to do everything, making hats, dye-ing, distressing, fat suits, armor. (On the other hand maybe I would miss dress making- AH! I don't know, this is why I'm the intern.) The best part about minty statue man is that I'm getting paid $800! That will quadruple my bank account.
