Wow! Two posts in one day!!

I wanted to forward a film still of the video that is used in the room.  I absolutely adore the “ghosty” effect that I was able to achieve and I have to say I am absolutely obsessing over doing more with video!  OBSESSING!! (and maybe obsessing over buying that new Mac I’ve been wanting).

The great thing about it is that this installation as sparked such an avenue of work that I would like to explore.  Of course, this now steps even further outside the box of marketable work but I guess I don’t care so much anymore.  I honestly couldn’t believe I was able to achieve such a quiet breath into the room I created at Arts Lehigh.  I’m not patting myself on the back- I just was absolutely intimidated by video technology and thought it would be so far beyond me but I guess the approach should be much like I have learned photoshop- using it to suit my needs as I need it.  My brain is so busy churning away at new work and no rest for the weary- Red Show opens in the next few weeks!  I’m thinking of being a maniac and creating another small piece derivative of the Arts Lehigh piece.  Let’s see how my energy level holds up.  I’m still reeling from a bit of exhaustion.

Much more to catch you up on the days to come…. my missing camera resurfaced yesterday.  I have pictures of my amazing students (affectionately entitled “the popcorn kids”) to show off; need to show you images of Chores; AND talk about my trip to the Fabric Workshop a few weeks ago.  My life may be nuts but it’s actually pretty fun!  I so could never be contained in a cubicle!

One quick reminder: the One Stone gals will be back Friday to do the window tour of their work for “Archetypes: These Role(s) We Wear.”  It’s not to be missed.  FRIDAY, MARCH 19.  BEGINNING AT TALLARICO’S (Third Street Bethlehem) AT 4:30PM.  RECEPTION TO FOLLOW AT BANANA FACTORY (yet another chance to check out Chores!)
