No, not me! Silly! Oh, how I wish that it was my name that was attached to this lovely piece of art work and the title above! But alas, that title belongs to my friend Lesley. Lesley, is Texas born, but sadly no longer Texas based, artist. Her in work is based in mixed-media as well as fabric. She sent us (Tina and I) a piece to use as a give-away in the June PC. Sadly, I did not get pics, but let me tell you, it was amazing. A completely, stitched and sewn fabric book that had all of us gals just itchin to hold it. It was so lovely. Blast Renee'...er uhm I mean, lucky Renee' was the winner on that one.
But here is the good part! You can take a class from the wonderful Miss Lesley herself! Yep. KC Willis Studio Retreats is having a "visiting artists class" and Lesley is one of the teachers. She will be doing a Relics class and it looks so wonderful. For more dates and info head here! The classes are February 4-6, 2010. But from the looks of the samples, I am willing to bet it will fill up fast!
Also, as an aside, "Mr. Lesley" as Lesley's hubby is known, has a cooking blog! So be sure to take a peep at Mr Lesley Cooks. as well. He's funny and he cooks! Lesley is a lucky gal indeed!
Here's one more little peep, I hope she won't mind me showing ya, LOVE this!
Is this not the prettiest? As I said, she is oh-so-talented. So, check out her blog, and this site for more class info! You won't be disappointed. As I said, if only I lived closer! I would be there with bells on! :D
Happy Monday!
Yowza! That is a beautiful book, so rich in detail. Checked out the retreat site. Colorado in February sounds great. But, this Texan will just have to "SKI TEXAS" and create art here, as Colorado is just a bit far. Lucky for those close by, though! P.S. ~ I'm certain that your blog title would most certainly aptly describe you as well, silly goose! Thanks for the blog visit ~ Angela
