CAC members' amazing creativity during the shutdown, part 6

4/17/2020

Theresa Kuo has spent a lot of time sewing masks recently (below left are a few of them). She asked us to tell you that any CAC members who do not have a mask can contact her to request one.

And Pat Hanscom's photo of "my most recent bread effort" is below on the right. Looks good enough to eat!
Fred Chen reports "I hope many of our ceramic artists saw the super moon on 4/7.  If you missed it, here a couple of pictures for your perusal." Wow - almost as good as being there.
Below are 2 views of “Pastel,” Patty Taylor's latest beautiful sculpture, which she created at home during the shutdown  It is 13" in height, and sits on a base that's another 6" tall (the base was fired in last year's Pit Fire). The clay is B-mix with grog, and she applied terra sigliatta and stain colors to the surface when the piece was leather hard. Now it's ready to be bisque fired. Patty says "I may either Pit fire or Raku the sculpture."
Anne Shulenberger has used her tablet & several different apps to make a some digital "prints" from photos of flowers taken around Rossmoor. On the left is a clump of narcissus; on the right are poppies.
Darryla Green says "My patio is now a dyeing workshop. Here is a testing sample - I used local plants over madder root on the fabric." (left photo below)

Maggie Michelitch made a wonderful long scarf (shown below on the right) with the help of YouTube videos. There's no end to what you can learn while sheltered at home!
Barbara Wightman reports, "I have a lot in Rossmoor’s garden and I wanted to start seeds at home. I didn’t have any pots, so I made them out of my neighbor’s newspapers. I eventually made 70 pots (shown below on the left) - and all the seeds sprouted!

"The photo on the right shows what I did with some of my scrapbooking paper. I decided to clean out a closet and saw my stacks and stacks of scrapbook paper and wondered what to do with them. So I made some envelopes and then matching cards (unfortunately,  I still have stacks and stacks)!"
Sandy Walker sent us these two "pictures of my quilts that I've been working on during this stay-at-home time." Wow - they're wonderful.
Albert Goldreich (still in Texas, alas), has been making some lovely textured vases, 3 of which are shown below.
