Goddess of the Night Talisman

I am in the middle of a very busy week, so although some artwork is being done every day, not much is getting finished.

I have plans for a large abstract on the "boundaries" theme and am busily planning some larger stencils so they fill the space adequately and I have stapled a large canvas directly to the wall.   I am looking forward to getting messy on that project soon!

Here is a finished talisman, it feels like night in this one, so I have called her the "Goddess of the Night".

Another project, I am working on is an embroidery section for a collaborative piece based on definitions of the word "liminal".  The section I have chosen to do, sort of fits in with my "boundaries" theme and is:

"the site of the border of any stable system of signs,"

I am at the gathering materials stage and figuring out how to display the words.

Your title is perfect for this wonderful piece! "Liminal" - I'm embarrassed to say I had to look up that word. The collaborative project sounds so interesting! Looking forward to hearing more about it.

Thanks Chris, Linda, Ronda, Sheila and Jennifer, the canvas on the wall is 2feet wide, by 3feet tall. Not huge, but larger than the sizes I have been working on so far.
