  • Im very excited to be adding a portable indoor cyanotype
    2 weeks ago by craftsanity I’m very excited to be adding a portable, indoor cyanotype printing set up to my studio that I will also be able to use to sprout my seeds for spring planting. Today is nice and sunny so I made a quick doily test print out on the deck. This form of printing is so much faster and cleaner than carving lino. However, I have no plans to give up printing with ink and look forward to continuing to explore all forms of printmaking. : )  #cyanotype   #cyanotypes   #sunprinting   #doilies   #sunprint   #printmaker   #fiberartist   #fiberart   #testprint

    1 week ago by craftsanity Learning to embrace and celebrate life’s imperfections is a very freeing experience. I’m practicing this twice a week with muddy hands and wishing I had more time to spend exploring what can be made with clay and a bit of patience.  #pottery   #potterswheel   #throwing   #artschool   #throwingpottery   #grcc   #potter   #imadethis   #art   #mugs   #mud   #artist   #imlearning   #rookievibes   #trysomethingnew   #clay   #handmadeinmichigan

  • Im up way past my bedtime but I did manage
    2 days ago by craftsanity I’m up way past my bedtime, but I did manage to salvage my day and end it well. I shared a peanut butter apple with my daughter on our way back from art school this evening and it tasted amazing. Life is sweeter when you take a moment to reflect on what really matters. I was the last student to leave this space today.  #arttherapy   #pottery   #motherdaughterart   #art   #learningstuff
