Flaming snowflakes?!

This weeks studio project is a bit crafty; as I am making decorations for ArtsWorcester’s event on Friday.
I was presented with a box full of cardstock, glue, stickers and hole punches then asked to come up with an idea for auction paddles. The theme of the event is “Fire and Ice” A Hot Sale on a Cool Night.
Well to me the idea of making flames w/ snowflakes and flaming snowflakes fit perfectly! Although I am a painter not a crafter I was still compelled to try my hand at this project; which I thought would give a little “flare” to the usual decor.
That and of course there’s a principle here. ArtsWorcester is an ARTS organization with a resource of about 400 artists so we should be able to pull together something a little creative for our Once a year Fundraiser, right?
so here i am cutting and pasting; taking much more time with the project than I probably should. I have 7 mostly done and 4 more to go.
I will post a couple pictures in a little while.

heres two:
I started off doing the “cutesie” look and ended up making the later ones more elaborate.

New Blogger account for me

Let me introduce myself.

I am Cynthia Woehrle. I am an artist living in Worcester Ma where I have recently acquired my own studio. With this new studio I am entering a new phase of my art work.

what else?

I studied at Montserrat college of art where I met my mentor George Gabin. I am on the board at ArtsWorcester where I help the visual arts committee plan out the gallery schedule and promote the art community. I also volunteer for Worcester Arts Alliance in planning their annual fundraiser Art 4 stART which funds the stART on the Street festival.

So this is my art blog, where I’ll be offering a glimpse of what I do in the studio, the happenings in the art community around town and my perspective on the global art world.
