I also have been inspired by NPR’s Tiny Desk AND soooo began thinking tiny, miniature, smaller bits of beauty etc. I stumbled across these Odoria 1:24 Vintage Japanese Furniture pieces & thought about how each piece is so cool and wanted to isolate or encapsulate these miniatures along with natural beauty here in Girdwood, especially after the rain. Using moss I found in the yard, I made these glass terrariums that are about 5-7” tall each with the Odoria phonograph and low table, vintage telephone, vintage TV, and my favorite, a vintage sewing machine and bench. Hope you like them as much as I do! </span></p><div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, system-ui, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 15px;

I don't even mind digging out the tent and racks, table, chairs, performing the tagging, pricing, bagging, loading, and everything else that goes into free market capitalism. At the top of my "positives" list for this market is that it forced me to up my POS bank card transaction game. Using my Crow Creek Cool Shopify set up I was able to obtain a Shopify card reader and integrate my current e-commerce sales flow! No more printers, reconciling sales after each show, crazy expensive cc machines and paper that annually become obsolete. The past pandemic year has hit everyone hard - especially us MAKERS. I've always needed an outlet for my making and the new, home grown neighborhood farmers market being kicked off in Girdwood is just what the community needed. Every other Sunday throughout the summer come to the Ghood and shop local for veggies, artisan wares, coffee, self-care goods, flowers, ferments, tie-dye, and even <a href="https://www.facebook.com/alaskafishmarket" target="_blank">FRESH SALMON</a>(!), all bathed in LIVE MUSIC! Crow Creek Cool will have new bags & flags -even one-of-a-kind hand painted cool flags along with my latest hand crafted items of muse!

A full page of saturated CMYK ink spit out instead of two pages of Word docs. Cool fail, huh?! I'm seeing some fun pattern works both digitally and in fiber. Normally, I use my commercial grade HP laser printer for graphic design but I also have an HP Photosmart inkjet printer that I use for making iron-on transfers and other artful projects that the expensive laser printer isn't suitable for.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A new year is an opportunity to learn about and renew those things that matter to each of us -and hopefully, be mindful of them throughout the year. One way is to create a <a href="http://www.elephantjournal.com/2012/09/ten-steps-for-creating-a-personal-mandala-vera-snow/" target="_blank">personal Mandala</a> as a visual to aid in mindfulness. A Mandala is a symmetrical design that uses shape and colors as an expression. Most Mandalas are circular and I created mine digitally in Adobe Illustrator CC, as I wanted to efficiently incorporate various imagery and graphics (both vector and rasterized) that are meaningful to me. The basis for my original inspiration and design came from a <a href="http://www.cafeastrology.com/freebirthchart.html" target="_blank">Natal Chart or Birth Chart Wheel</a> and then sprinkling in some numerology, my <a href="http://littleredtarot.com/numerology-and-tarot-birth-cards/" target="_blank">Tarot Birth Card</a> from the major arcana, which is The Empress. I've provided <a href="http://saltspringcentre.com/2011/06/create-your-personal-mandala/" target="_blank">links</a> in this post that may be helpful should you want to explore some of these ideas. Starting with a spiral base design, you can easily copy, cut and paste imagery, write affirmations, hopes, and dreams. There really are no rules so use these base spirals as a template to enlarge or even reduce and copy for multiple smaller spirals to form a larger Mandala! Here are a couple of <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0zCENPjx5naZnRwVzY3ek13a1U/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Mandala base spiral graphics</a> I put together that you can download for free to start creating your personal Mandala.</span><br />

I've collected lichens, mushrooms and moss from the Girdwood Valley and berries from Mt. Alyeska. Friends and family have sent me more interesting berries, nuts and mosses from places far and near! I'm experimenting and creating beautiful limited batches of artisan, hand-crafted drawing inks and some of the colors are FAB! I've also noticed that by using glacier water, the colors are far more beautiful, clear and true.</span><br />

“Mer-Girl” is an original 22”x 23” fiber art piece using traditional styles of quilting with new forms of digital image media transfers and hand crafted by artist Cindy Shake. The concept for this piece was for the beautiful underwater “Mer-Girl” to take our worries away with the ocean currents. This piece is designed to be wall hung in a place where worries and negative thoughts would be pulled away from our hearts and minds for anyone who looked at the “Mer-Girl” fiber art piece.</div>

Lots of changes here in Alaskaland for this happy artist! I've been working full time with a wonderful corporation as their Marketing and Communications Manager. Lots of work to do, challenges and even exciting travel to far away and beautiful places. I admit that my Blog has been put on auto-pilot as I've been using Facebook for my creative updates rather than generating Blog posts. Our new-old house move still has the shop waiting to be set-up with big power, but for now I've set up shop in the driveway in a pinch! I've got a couple of sculptures I wanted to weld up for two of my favorite events -the <a href="http://www.alaskasealife.org/alaskamarinegala/index.html">Alaska SeaLife Center's Marine Gala </a> and the annual art auction for <a href="http://knba.org/post/2014-alaska-native-art-auction">KNBA</a>, both events are in February. I threw on extra layers, hoped for dry skies and being thankful for the finish work that could be done in the unheated garage! I finally warmed up doing the beading for the "water" embellishments INSIDE the house with my slippers on.<br />
