Ha! So much for regular programming. I guess there's not a lot of that around here anyway. I've been working on a piece for a studio/open house/holiday party this weekend. If I get some time this evening** I might set them up to take some pictures. In the gallery space they'll have mushrooms growing from the "logs". The felt is polyester (for those who aren't familiar with fabrics, felt was originally made from animal hair/wool). I love toying with the idea of synthetic natural environments.
