About Me
- Barb
- I'm a wife, mother, grandmother, Girl Scout, crafter, artist, graphic designer.... in other words.... busy! Minnesota born...Wisconsin raised.... and now claiming dual citizenship since I have been living back in Minnesota for so long. (Although I remain a Packer fan!) As an artist, my favorite medium is paper. Handmade paper, tissue paper, any kind of paper. I also enjoy doing things with fabric. Tie dyeing, marbling, among other things. All of these get used with scouts at some time or another it seems. If you are wondering where the name Isolde came from. It was my camp name when I attended a camp back in high school. I needed a name for the "Thing-a-Day" project, figured it was as good as any, and just kept it here... in case someone from there follows me to here. That simple or complex......

Hi Isolde! Thanks for letting me know that you finished the can lid project. It is lovely! So inspiring. Thanks for letting me know you finished it. And for letting me know about your blog. I am now a follower...
ReplyDeletePS I am from Minneapolis originally. My family still all lives there...
ReplyDeleteThey're all great!
ReplyDeleteThe tin/can lid idea is a truly inspired one. I've seen the little wrapped mirrors you can get. I love the background.
I love the design of the bottom piece too. Very fine and geometric - is it produced with pen or paint?
PS - it's good to catch up again after EDM! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe green graphic started out as an exercise in a drawing class. It was actually only one of the sides shown. A couple years later if needed to do a surfacing technique in my papermaking class. I scanned the ink drawing I had done previous and colorized it. Then I took my handmade paper and ran it through the printer 4 times from a different direction each time. An experiment that actually worked!
