I am almost caught up with August! I actually have enough days of felt made through tomorrow, but I'm way behind on the wood frames, and am in search, yet again, for a free source of wood. It's amazing how much wood one can go through when using 23" every day. Days 19 through 29 are pictured below.
One of my reasons for getting behind on my Calendar was installing my fiber forest in the Rall Gallery at Doane College in Crete, NE. I really love that the gallery is inside the college library, because I think of my trees as cylindrical journals inside the library of the forest. The show is up through the 28th, so if you missed seeing it last fall, I hope you can make it since fiber art never looks as good in photos as it does in person. That is especially true of these photos, since I hastily took them after hour 13 of installing. I decided that if I continue to do this in the future, I need to work on my installation endurance by running up and down a ladder for hours on end while looking up.
