Living as Artists in the Adirondack Mountains

WELCOME to the new format



Changes for Eating Art

I've decided to take it totally into the Blog Format, and no more E-Magazine.  So what started as a mailed out newsletter, morphed through the original eatingart e-magazine into Mountain Drum e-magazine, back to Eating Art and now in the Blog format.

Which makes the most sense for me right now.  We don't take family trips anymore, or throw a lot of big parties, and although Eating Art was also about our work as artists I think it will become more so now.

I was waiting to have the materiel to make a story and create a spring edition when I realized that I put all the stories out there over the course of a month and that the blog really works much better.  So a blog it is.

I'm going to go month by month and each month will then be listed under the current year  into the archives.

If you could drop me an e-mail to let me know what you think of the new format, it would be much appreciated.

Pottery update

I had an interruption in EatingArt.  The server that my web business is on was sold and the new company didn't want to support my software, because it's an older version.  But still works every bit as good as new software.  Anyway they wouldn't support it so I had to move 65 websites to a new server, double check them all and make sure they were all running good, and that's taken almost two weeks.  So that's what I've done.

Here's what Sue has been up to:

Sue decided today to make a fountain for the garden.  Funny thing, we keep selling the fountains that we put out there.  So on the right is the base for the fountain.  On the left is a new udu that she is making.

And this will be the bowl.  Sue says she's going to design a jack in the pulpit kind of thing to fit in the bowl and the water will come flowing out of that....can't wait to see that!

When Sue's not busy with pottery, she's always doing something.  Here's she's designed this template and she's cutting into scrap paste paint paper and wrapping wooden balls.

She'll be using these hand decorated beads in some of her new necklaces.

Here Sue is making a horned animal occarina........
