FEB to Cathy and Mary - Joan Jonas


 I wish I had used guide lines on this one and also put in the apostrophe. I ended up liking this and wished that I had another page of skateboards. Then I did this one - which is rather fun. I don't think the blue lines over the white name add anything - but - I can see using this concept again.

I found something online to share but it is so weird I have to preface it by describing why I would even post it. I was reading an article about an artist, a woman, a bit older than me (she's 87) - Joan Jonas. She's one of those women artists who ran with the artists during the second half of the 1900's - when it was pretty hard to be taken seriously if you were a woman. She persevered and the article was about a retrospective of her work. 

There were photos of her including some shots of her studio. She had a taxidermy wolf. Not that I would want one, but, it made me wonder how easy it is to find taxidermy animals. 

Here is another shot from her studio that I would definitely do if I were not sharing my space with someone who is traditional. 


Here is the link if you would like to read the whole article. 
The NYTimes only allows one free article per month - and I don't think it's been a month since I linked to them. Sorry abut that.
The weird part will pop up tomorrow. Brace yourselves.
