I know, it’s been quite a while. I’ve done several new things in that time but for some reason the ‘tassel’ sticks I just made are what’s getting me to post. I have lots of other new ideas, the likes of which I’ve never seen anywhere else (I generally never see my ideas anywhere else, […]
Hey guys! The Far Grove now has a Deviant Art page! I’ve been a Deviant Art member for three years, but TheFarGrove only joined up a week ago…and already the FG gallery has 18 submissions. It’s great to see my work all on one page like that…it reminds me of how many new things I’ve […]
I haven’t written in four months. Wow. But then, that’s about how long I’ve been UTTERLY SICK of hairsticks.
I clearly need to diversify. I’m investing in half a dozen books, all on different techniques, and plan to make a piece in each, even if I don’t immediately fall for it…I need to think of new […]
In news that is not fun: my health is still causing a lot of trouble right now. But I have fun news as well! My supply order was made…and arrived sooner than expected! Not only that…I made my new work area! To do this I had to:
Move my piano.
Buy 3 bookshelves
Assemble the shelves
Buy a melamine […]
Well, I did actually do a set of floaters and I even tried a black and white clippie…but they’re not turning out as I’d like. I think I’m going to have to go with something a bit more unconventional. It’s VERY hard to make a clippie look anything but ‘cute’, and floaters mostly fit in […]
For the first time in a while I felt a bit excited about something I was going to list on Etsy…and Etsy has been down for the last five hours. I can’t get it to load at ALL, let alone log on. So I’m going to have to forgo listing today unless it comes back […]
I am currently re-photographing sticks and altering some sticks that I don’t like enough to put up for sale ‘as is’, so I have nothing new to show. My health is moderate-low at the moment but I’m still getting a few things done, and my tulips this year are wonderful. I encourage everyone out there […]
I am the kind of person who would LIKE to be sentimental…but just can’t manage it. It seems so unfeminine, to be almost utterly lacking in sentimentality. I don’t look at old photos with any sense of warm-fuzziness, I don’t look upon gifts as talismans or signs of love (though I do remember who gave […]
I was intending to clean up today, particularly because it is too windy to go biking. (It’s not a great replacement but it’s important to get SOME physical activity even on cold, windy days.) So I took half of a half-strength (regular ones are 200mg but mine are only 100mg) caffeine pill. (I have a […]
I’m definitely coming to the realization that I simply cannot post to TFG’s blog 4 or 5 times a week, every week. I think it’s better to post when you actually have something you want to say/share than to force yourself to think of something daily. So I promise I’ll definitely post at least once […]
