Ahhhhhhhh, this is so right and by that I mean that I immediately thought of Bob Dylan’s’ song, the one with the lyrics, “the answer my friend is blowing in the wind…” now I know that this is luring crows but it seems to me that if SHE lures crows, uses the wind to signify her intent, then it stands that the possibilities for living a life of good intention exists…and I noticed what looks like a twig or branch holding this cloth and I smiled.

i cocked my head sideways and see mountain ranges–and the foot print of a crow coming out from the figure, on top of the raft. and looking again, the flag beacon becomes a butterfly. i love this cloth.

when i was driving down from Magdalena yesterday, it was
just at THAT time of day when all the layers of the
earth were so visible and i saw then that my cloths are
Honest in this way. i sew what i see. i do. and i
was very very happy.LikeLike

the pipes…they were kind of pushed upon me. they ARE
wonderful, just so so great and now the plumbing should
last a “lifetime”. but again, as is that back fence,
they were given. in a way i would have rather kept on
the way i was, ify, but to use Cindy’s word, fiercely.
but i need to accept the reality as it presents Itself.
stop feeling i need to control things i guess?…
it is a wonderful thing tho, that there is no longer
any fear for the Goat water.LikeLike

it is. it’s a salt cedar twig. really, very long. an
arch. since these cloths are intended for Other people,
they need a way to Put them if they don’t pin on their
curtains or stick stuff with tacks all over their walls.
Hence…the twig. i know..i thought of you when i slid
it in the little sleeve. LOVE,LikeLike

Your work seems to flow from you, I’m loving every move you make on this piece, and I also love that you are showing us each step of the way. This piece, like so many of your works, really speaks to me. Very soulful. Let us know if it will be up for sale when finished. I would love to live with it in my home.

I’m so thrilled Grace, thank you. I have one room in my home that I call my nest, it’s the room that I display all my favorite things, it’s the room that when I walk into envelops me and gives me a hug, my feel good place. That’s where I will hang this very special treasure you’ve created. Thank you for trusting me with it’s care. xoxox deb

Debra…this is great. one MORE ify gone. so this is
the way it can go. something being seen as it is being
made. the direct question asked. this is how i’ve
done it with Jude and others. “Can I buy this?”.
there is no other way for me, really. no little online
shop. i would never have enough work for that. i am
SLOW. and this life is Big with so much Unforseen.
So…thank you for setting this in MOTION.
Soon…xoxo to youLikeLike

Grace, this is so marvelous. Always with your work the vantage point is somewhere unexpected. Here I think it is a bird’s eye view, isn’t it? not on the same surface as the lure (and lurer, if that is a word) but up in the air with crows. Am I reading/seeing that right? So beautiful in every way Grace. Such a wonderful feeling – of being in the air with crows- to give your viewer.
Thank you!LikeLike

YES! yes you are!
they sometimes float, some times Surge through the Wind Currents
overhead, but i know they are aware of me.
i am down here, calling to Them.LikeLike

and looking again now (I had to rush away to shop-vacuum water off the basement floor….), I realize that the arrangement of the four crows leaves the viewer in exactly the right spot to be the fifth. You do this so effortlessly, so genuinely. How wonderful your work is Grace.

i have really wierd hair. it doesn’t grow much at all.
just stays the same, year after year. it’s shiney, like
healthy, just doesn’t grow. except the “bangs” that
i wish would “grow away” so i didn’t have bangs anymore,
but them too. just long enough to get in my eyes too
much so they get trimmed. and it’s really fine and stick straight. not an iota of “body”. oh well.LikeLike
