from jeri - graceful envelope



 i think these are already on the blog, but i wanted to post them again, just so you can see how someone can be wildly creative with straight lines. the scrabble envelope was a first place winner.

we are getting down to the wire on the contest deadline. has anyone even started yet? not, me. there is a rich tradition of artists who get better ideas when the deadline is just a moment away. it's completely different from procrastination. i know this because, frequently, when i stay ahead of schedule and get things done, with plenty of time to spare -- as it gets closer to the deadline, i realize that i have a much better idea -- and then i scrap the one that is finished and go ahead and do the one that percolated up at the very last minute. (yes, i am repeating myself for no good reason)
