Holy Heat Wave!

I think this heat would make me really crabby if it wasn’t for our NEW POOL!

Lucky for us it’s been installed and filled for a week now and we are floating around ENJOYING the warmth of the sun.

Being around the pool all day and playing lifeguard to my 3 and whatever friends are over leaves little time in the studio but I am making headway on three major projects.  I’m taking a quick trip home to visit my family in MN and then I’ll be posting the new rubber sheets.

My very first set of rubber sheets – The HomeWard Collection went online in May 2002.  Is it possible it was THAT long ago?  I started with 4 sheets and now it’s at 18.  The new set of sheets comes with a new direction, and new name for the collection.  You may have noticed I’m getting larger with my images – that is because my own interest is working big – on pages, and paper, and on canvas with paint.  As I’ve said before, the benefit of designing for unmounted sheets is that you can get big.  I was just looking through some sites that carry my mounted stamp designs and I’m still surprised that one 3" x 3" stamp can cost $10 or more.  Maybe people think unmounted is pricey but when you think of what you’re getting it works out cheaper.  Imagine what is would cost you to buy a mounted image that is 3" x 10"!

Coming soon…….

    I took a class from you June ’05 at ArtBar and purchased a bunch of UMs from you then and LOVE them! Looking forward to the new designs. Keep cool! Our heatwave is coming this weekend, too (WA state).
