Still Over Water. Silk organza photo over fiber image of a puddle.
This one came together as an surprise. The jars are printed on silk organza and I placed it over the fiber photo on cotton of a puddle and bam! I was going to cut the organza overlay off entirely on top and then I like the way they fell over, so there they are!No comments: Friday, April 23, 2021 Alternative Photography Exhibit at RICP

Hi!
I've been making all sorts of journals for years now. One of the easiest and quickest is the simple signature journal. I'll share a few steps, how-to's, here but first here's a picture off the internet where you can find more on this. This journal has 2 more holes on either side of center. But you can choose how many holes you want!
Gather your cover, mine is painted 140 cold press watercolor paper and your pages. I am using a mix of painted drawing paper, torn to size and scrap inkjet prints. The inkjet prints were generated for use with a thermal fax machine so I have lots of extras but you can print them just for pages in your journal. This one is photo of rock lines, edited to pure black and white. I used it for my 'centerfold'.After tearing and folding pages, gather in the order you like and clip them to prevent them from slipping around.Make a hole in the center with an awl. You can measure, but for these I generally eyeball.
Thread your needle. I use a crewel size needle. Use strong thread such as pearl cotton, buttonhole thread or waxed linen thread. Insert needle either from inside or outside. The last step will leave the threads where you start.Enter the threaded needle from outside the book, slide it down to bottom and make another awl hole about 1" from bottom and go from inside to outside with the threaded needle.Then make another another awl hole toward top and enter again from the outside. The thread will leave a long 'stitch' along the spine.
Bring the needle back through the first hole.And on the outside place the 2nd thread on either side of the long 'stitch' on the outside binding edge.
Tie a square knot and trim threads to the length you desire.
You can also tie charms to these! Done!No comments: Tuesday, November 24, 2020 Art is...
Art is so many things it is hard to pin down.
The elusive nature of it speaks to the fact that, part of it, is exposing the tender side of the artist's soul. The viewer responds and this creates a dialogue.
That to me is art. A connection. A communication.
It can be fine art, fiber art, pottery even jewelry. There is no firm definition so lets just draw the circle larger.No comments: Tuesday, November 17, 2020 Time
A silent stirring. Was it the wind or a bird outside my window? The morning talking, waking me from slumber, pressing me to begin, begin! This day, this gorgeous day, another new precious day to write upon! What treasure will I find? What secret longing to fulfill? Oh yes, I have the down days, the gray days, the days I question. But as I grow older, ripe with experiences, my time more precious, the less I want drama, the less sucking me down into black holes, I come forward from those times with a renewed vigor for the simple, unadorned pleasures.

I hope you enjoy it! More ideas in my book-http://tinyurl.com/z7jcb2eNo comments: Sunday, January 26, 2020 Serendipity CollageTwo postcards from my previous workshop Serendipity Collage. Basically, we created all of the materials with paint surface design. Apply to a base with gel medium, ending with the top layer of transparent fabric tissue. The tissue is applied carelessly so it wrinkles.
It becomes almost transparent adds texture. The base can be fabric or paper, maybe 10 x 15 or 20 x 30 but any size. Then we hit the whole thing with more mediums- some we create ourselves, top it with white gesso using a almost dry brush, apply it almost parallel so it only hits the top of the peaks of the collage. At this point you can go back in with more paint, text, whatever. Then the surprise happens because we cut it up! So if you have a 10 x 16 Base, you can cut them up into 5 x 8 pieces. Or the 20 x 30 could be cut into 10 x 15 pieces or 5x 7 and so on. Thats the advantage of having a really large base to begin with.
What is absolutely amazing and the point of the whole activity is the serendipity or flow that you are in when you make the collage and each little piece that you cut off become tiny little compositions.
Its amazing how it works!! I loved this process!No comments: Sunday, December 1, 2019 Handmade Copic JournalsI love books. Always have. Then in 2006, I took a workshop at Haystack School of Crafts in Deer Island ME with the wonderfully inspiringPaulus Berensohnand learned to create my own journals!Each journal is created with covers made with paste paper. wrapped around a stiff board such as Davies Board.Within the book are folded papers with shorter covers. These are called signature pages.Each section of signature pages are sewn between the covers.
They Lay flat when opened.
I monoprint or paint the white pages!
Love those Edges!

Making my art allows me to tap into levels of perception, becoming more aware, more conscious, more grateful. Ive loved photography my entire life. This brings a tender sensitivity to ones surroundings. I make the art then the art makes me.

"This is one of the fundamental tools of any artist, allowing us to see what we really see. That Redmond has successfully achieved this aspect through the often-difficult medium of textiles is doubly in need of praise. Her work will allow us to reach levels in which we can observe her understanding of observation." Pat Shaer

Wen Redmond changes imagination into fascinating art...Published in 10th Anniversary DEC/JAN 011 Issue
Kahlil Gibran
A spiritual awakening is often found and developed in a wilderness. It can be a poem or a parable of a deep forest, a mountain meadow or a cactus-studded desert. The outdoor spirit of plein air refreshes and further enables the indoor studio chapel. Each new creative beginning is a confirmation of the simple truth of taking care. And while it may all appear to be self-indulgent and isolating, every thought, every stroke, every caress of the brush adds a small refreshment of meaning and purpose to our universe. "Work is love made visible."

My wall at the workshop's end.Poem by Mary Oliver
Hello, sun in my face.
Hello, you who made the morning
and spread it over the fields
and into the faces of the tulips
and the nodding morning glories,
and into the windows of, even, the
miserable and the crotchety
best preacher that ever was,
dear star, that just happens
to be where you are in the universe
to keep us from ever-darkness,
to ease us with warm touching,
to hold us in the great hands of light
good morning, good morning, good morning.
Watch, now, how I start the day
in happiness, in kindness.
