I've finished my latest painting and tomorrow I'll hang it in the gallery at my school for our staff holiday show. It may be displayed next to sentimental paintings of snow scenes (gag, yes I was told work like this was done by now retired staff) and look out of place, but I couldn't bring myself to make something commercial or festive and the other teachers in my department don't seem like the type to do that either. Since this is my first staff show I don't really know what to expect; perhaps I'll blog about that later. From what I was told the art doesn't need to be holiday themed, but in the past staff and community members have bought work from this show as holiday presents.
This weekend I started sewing a new creature too out of a moth bitten sweater and a sock --he's a little rough around the edges at the moment, but I think he should turn out well.
