I entered a still ...I love, love, love your messes. I entered a still life design in a flower show recently. The title of the exhibit was the Lure of the Garden. I had a Picasso looking vase, an antique paint box from a now deceased artist friend and a book about Picasso. I had flowers in the vase arranged very Picassoish.<br />I even downloaded Picasso's handwriting and had a sketch of the vase and flowers (as if he had sketched it before painting it). After the judging I was talking with one of the judges (I just happen to have been a clerk as the group of judges judged the exhibit I had entered and could not say a word the whole time the judges were doing their thing) about the exhibit. She mentioned mine and said that it really was creative and inovative but just sooooooooo messy. She said if the exhibitor had just cleaned up the paint off the box and had cleaned us some of the old tubes of paints and paintbrushes it would have been more pleasing to the eye. I laughed and said that the said exhibit was mine and that the paint box did not need cleaning up since that was the nature of the box. I had a good laugh and was pleased with my 2nd place ribbon.<br /> <br />You would probably faint if I took a picture of my sewing/junque room!!!<br /> <br />Loves messes too,<br />JuneJunenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-84505357338861544292010-06-27T13:07:42.650-04:002010-06-27T13:07:42.650-04:00Carol - I adore Squeak, I love London and I so adm...Carol - I adore Squeak, I love London and I so admire your terrific art.
