August 6
In My Studio – August 6
.
Here’s what’s been happening in my studio this past week:
I finished this little needle felted owl for my August 1 “Try This” post.
I worked on some other things this week, but they are all for future posts…so they’re a secret (for now).
I’ll repeat this information about The August Break 2012, every Monday in August.Â
During August, I’m participating in The August Break 2012 that is sponsored by Susannah Conway. Here’s what The August Break 2012 is all about:
How it works: you simply share one photo (or more!) each day on your blog – Monday to Friday, or every day. Or whenever you feel moved to share. Using any camera – DSLR, compact, Polaroid, Holga, iPhone (my choice), Instax, film or digital – with or without words – anything goes! – for the whole of August. No pressure – just looking at August through your camera lens as a way to be more present this summer. And to have a little break from the pressures and expectations of regular blogging.
There are NO RULES, people! Just sunshine (hopefully) + a bit of fun. And lots of lovely photos to look at and new blogs to discover.
I use photos I’ve taken every day for my “Daily Inspiration†segment, but they are not always taken that day or that week. To challenge myself for The August Break 2012, all my “Daily Inspiration†photos for August will be taken within a day or two of when they appear. I’ll also include a line or two about the photograph.
Daily Inspiration
 
Be regular and orderly in your life, so that you may be violent and new in your work.

About the photo (taken August 6) …I work with abandon, but then I need to stop and reorder my work space. It’s time to stop.

Your owl looks GREAT! My assistant felted a little Elephant and she has a fairy kit she wants to try next.
Your pal, Pip
Oooo! I spy a Thirty One caddy! 😛 I actually have that one ordered right now and I’m waiting for it to get here.
Your owl turned out so cute! I can’t wait to see your other projects!
When M. Flaubert said “be regular in life” what do you think he meant? 😉
I think he meant “regular” in the the way I’m not “regular” (ha).
The owl is so cute! The August Break is a great idea!
Ha! I just love seeing your space messy- it proves that you are human somehow. 😉
Oh, Addie…if you could see all the areas I don’t take photos of, you’d see that I’m super-human (ha).
That owl is too cute
Love your little owl, looking forward to your suprises – I love suprises!
