My first “Water” swap package has been received and feedback was left at Swap Bot. It seems to have been well received, thankfully. I really wish I had taken photographs before sealing up the packets as I really did like some of the pieces and was well pleased with my attempts at needle felting which I included.

To tell the truth, it hurt a bit to part with the felts – I was pleased as Punch with my efforts. That’s the best way, isn’t it? To give away the ones that we like the best and not keep them for ourselves. It leaves room and drive to make some more art.

Talking of making more art – I was keen to get some of my blue prints and Shibori done within the PS3 Water period. It ain’t going to happen, though. Logistics. Like the lack of sun and windless days in Orkney. Actually, my fist challenge will be to find a way of drying my prepared fabric in the dark. I’m not at all sure how I can make that happen.

I might try an ad in the local shops to see if anyone can loan me a UV sun lamp… that would take care of the exposures, but still leaves the dark drying problem to be solved.

Here’s a PS3 Water ATC that I completely forgot to send out. Digital, from an original photograph – prints available on request and I will limit to an edition of 4.

It’s called Sea Fever and that is Mr Plumbum in the shot. Comment below if you want one, or use the form on the Contact page.
