...and the sky is blue...After getting back on my feet after a debilitating injury, I hastened to complete a winter piece that I started at the beginning of the year. Outside my window, I see the last signs of summer - dahlias and geraniums still blooming brightly under the blue skies of Santa Fe. But inside, I am regarding my winter collage - a bare tree at night in winter. What a contrast. I have to wear a sweater while I work because I get so immersed in the scene. I have added the finally pieces and I am pleased with the results. Seeing life and hope in the darkest winter can be challenging, but I see it here around and above this bare tree on a snowy starry night. Of course I will be bringing the Original to the next show. That's the big one in November! The Cycle of RecycleI was delighted when Labor Day weekend rolled around - not just for the start of the Fiesta celebrations all over the city, but the first announcements of the Recycle Show - my favorite arts show of the year. This year, Recycle Santa Fe Art Festival is returning in full force. In addition to the fine Art Exhibition and the Art Market (the two events I join in), the Recycle Show has brought back the beloved Trash Fashion show! On Friday evening, competitors strut their fashions made entirely of Trash! I will have a booth set up in the Art Market on all three days of the show, to display and sell new pieces, many original collages, and of course, the greeting cards. New to the show will be the new collections that I debuted in December and January, "Enchantment" and "Spiritus". My holiday card set "Peace and Joy" is available as a collection of 5 cards. All of these and more are in my Etsy shop "DecoCollageCards" - get a jump on the holiday before the shipping prices go up! Until next time! Love and Peace, Deco
