dvd joanne sent me about making a replica angus garment
fiberartist joanne kaar has made
fiberartist joanne kaar has made
her way as a fiberartist
doing some amazing work
she is twining, then looping a coarse but strong structure
i first saw her work when she was
blogging about her work
in journeys
which captured my attention, then my heart
she and gin petty were the two papermakers
that swept me away
and inspired me to consider
being public on the net
(and someone else really encouraged me...)
(and someone else really encouraged me...)
joanne's current project is
working around the theme of angus macphee
from there you can search more about angus,
and the puppet theater that is performing
the weaver of grass.
joanne recently asked me if scotland is on my way to australia
so we can finally meet and visit.
you see, she and i did a journal exchange
for a couple of years, and we would
like to meet, in person.
and angus...he has captured my imagination, for he is
in some ways
like one of my students.

i loved that journal exchange! like the work that both of you make, earthy, meaty, smells wonderful, feels just right in the hands. i hope you make it to scotland!!
ReplyDeletei didn't have the energy to photograph the journal, but i think i will. wanna come with me to scotland?!
ReplyDeleteMy half our our journal exchange is very much treasured. How many years did we do it for? Was it 2 or 3 I forget. We must do something again....what next?
ReplyDeletefascinating woman, and it seems there is a connection between Scotland and Australia, only one has to be inside a bottle to make it!
ReplyDeletejoanne, it was so much fun! i loved it when you would add in pages to my weirdly sewn book! and i remember lots about joe fishing!
ReplyDeletekaite, hmm...!
