'Flounder Brain' Week :) :) :)

Hello Everyone:)

As you can see from my last post,

 (seems like forever since!)

I'm having what I am going to refer to as

'Flounder Brain' Week:)

I should elaborate...

Do not confuse the reference that I use occasionally

'Hamster Brain' with 'Flounder Brain'.

'Hamster Brain' is when you have dozens of ideas

for projects running around in your head, like a 

hamster in a wheel, but you're unable to 

pick one during this episode, so you become

overwhelmed with choices.

(Personally, I think it's a very creative state

of mind, and I don't mind those moments:)

Then there is 'Flounder Brain'!

I describe these moments, and in this case it's

been a week of them, as being like a 

flounder (fish) out of water.

You're on a dock, out of the water, only

knowing that you have to slap around trying

to find the water, until you finally find the

edge of the dock and fall in.....

The outcome of this, is that I have been

unable, to figure out what is my next new project.

I have a few to finish, but have been unable

(thanks to the real world), to find the time

to be in the art room....

So as not to make you all suffer from my 

episode of 'Flounder Brain'

I am posting this week a few pictures of

some past projects that I'm in hopes that

you'll find interesting:)

This is one of my collection of metal dress forms.

(With which I'm up to 5 of them, including one

life size model:)

And as you can see from her 'skirt' I had a 

flurry of creative moments making

bottle cap necklaces a while back:)

I do not profess to be into jewelry making,

but I do occasionally make these and a

few other items so I can play with the

vast collection of graphics I've purchased

over the past couple of years.

I'm also, as I make them, picking out

my favourites of each batch to assemble

a bracelet for myself:)

And as you can see, many of the one's I'm

choosing are bird related, (grin).

I figure over time, adding bits and pieces

it'll be a fun piece to wear:)

I encourage all of you to try this medium,

as it's a fun way to create in a mini version

for quick creative time:)

This is also a piece I made out of Tim Holtz

products, and some vintage bits for an

assemblage for myself:)

Also for anyone's interest, this is my latest

purchase to add to my wonderful collection

of dress forms.

I love all the details on this one:)

Although it's a different colour metal

from the rest of my collection

I just couldn't resist getting it as it's

so unique:)

So other than that, just some 'mindless' doodling 

this week....

So I hope you'll excuse my malay at the moment:)

I do want to acknowledge and Thank all
