MESSY WORK TABLE photo collaboration
If I actually had any readers they would think I am stalking Lynn Krawczyk! Really I'm not! I'm just trying to get involved in the blogosphere and she keeps giving me great opportunities. Thanks Lynn! This is a photo of my work table as it looks right this minute. I'm working on a readers challenge for Quilting Arts Magazine all about your signature color. You might be guessing that mine is purple. Pink is actually my favorite color, but almost everything I make ends up with purple in it so I dug out the purple scraps and went to town. My work table is usually twice as bad as this but I cleaned up a bit a few days ago because I couldn't find anything. The surface is covered with several pieces of freezer paper that are looking really cool with all the paint and ink and glue. I love the idea of taking photo's of my work table. Its such an evolving space. An artists work table reflects the mood, joy, and pain of the artist. The frenzy, pleasure and chaos are evident in the piles of media and ephemera. Imagine years of such photos as a record of where you've been as an artist. My journal is calling my name right now! I love my work table. I'd hug it if I could. I suppose I could get down and hug a leg, but that might look all wrong, if you know what I mean. Feeling pretty silly today!

LOL, sometimes I end up liking the freezer paper better than the project I'm working on! Thanks for sharing your messy workspace! It's good to know I'm not alone.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your worktable knows how you feel about it. :-) Thanks for sharing your mess.
ReplyDeleteMessy workers, unite!! Glad you shared your space!
ReplyDeleteYou cheated! Where's the rest of it? Are you showing us the cleanest part of the mess? Huh? huh? Inquiring minds want to know ;o)
ReplyDeleteI love how each photo's colors reflect the artist. Too cool!
