Hand-painting all the frames - front, back, and the inlay (also front and back). Hand-sculpting every little mushroom bead. Carefully cleaning each pair of those lovely scissors that arrived covered in oil. (I appreciate the manufacturer's thoughtfulness, but the oil would ruin the fabric in my kits!)
Oof. So much work.
But I'm so happy when my testers send me their results!

A wooden table covered with multiple square wooden frames with circular cutouts, partially painted black. A stack of fully painted black frames is on one side, along with a jar of black paint, a brush, and acrylic paint tube on a paper towel. The scene shows a home workspace with signs of active hand-painting and crafting.
A hand holding a black frame with a glowing embroidered star inside, labeled "Lichtpuntje." The tester is wearing a silver bracelet shaped like a twig with two buds. The background is a floral-patterned blanket.

Show me what your work in progress is?

I’m leaning into making “bad art,” rather than not making art at all. So I present to you a watercolor sketch of Bangkok, Thailand. The day I began this was in the middle of burn season, the air was thick with smoke and the sky was shining a hot pink through the sunshine and pollution. The shapes are not perfect, but #art doesn’t have to be perfect. So what’s your current #wip #WIPWednesday

A sketch of an apartment building with uneven lines, the Bangkok city line is visible on the right side, foliage scattered between, the sky is pink and the sun is glowing brightly. Down the left side is a palette of the watercolor pencil colors used to create the scene. Thanks for checking it out and not making fun of it.

The class is finished. It was a fun sidetrack, but not where I want my art to go. I took one of the final visual sentence pieces, cut it up again, and rearranged it into sparser collage -- better. I recommend the class to stretch your ideas of colour & negative space, but you will end up with something like the first piece. If that's you, have at it!

An irregular, pieced-together collage in blues and peaches, with some green & yellow, and lots of stripes and texture throughout.
The same collage, cut up into new pieces and arranged more sparsely on a blank page, in a roughly cruciform shape.

There it is, the final piece! No more #WIPWednesday for this one.
Monotropa uniflora II, made by request for a customer. As always, it’s much more beautiful in real life, with a lovely color gradient in the light that shows many more subtle hues than photos can capture. The flowers have a glossy sheen, as if covered in dewdrops. The base is covered in 'wet' twigs and mossy earth made out of felt.

A glass dome containing a sculpted Monotropa uniflora light sculpture. The translucent white flower stems curve downward with bell-shaped blossoms glowing warmly from within, resembling tiny lanterns. The base is decorated with natural elements like twigs and leaves.
A glass dome with the same Monotropa uniflora sculpture, shown with the lights turned off. The delicate, semi-transparent flowers are a soft white with pinkish centers, giving them an ethereal, ghostly appearance. The natural base and wooden stand are more visible in this lighting.
