Progresses – Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg
https://melissajaycraig.wordpress.com/2015/07/18/progresses
Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg. A visit to ZIA and my part of Anne’s current back room installation. I like the light. Building with the landscape and an eye to the work’s eventual deterioration. Whatever I get done today finishes the studio time this session (sigh), tomorrow is packing and shipping two shows and a few last-minute outside errands, Monday to pack everything and square away, Tuesday, load and road. This entry was posted in arthritis. Kozo and Fawns and Bears, Oh My (Peters Valley) →. Life on th...

Remembering Marilyn Sward – Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg
https://melissajaycraig.wordpress.com/remembering-marilyn-sward
Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg. People doing searches for Marilyn often get directed here, so I’m giving this post its own page. It was originally published on 9 June, 2010. Entering her name into the blog’s ‘search’ box will bring up other, briefer mentions. Thanks for visiting. I blurted. She replied, cautiously: Oh. How do I feel about that? Am I happy, or am I sorry? How would you like to help? Of fun. We invented things constantly. At one point, Audrey said, Hey! Let’s have a national Biennial! In 1996, ...

mjc – Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg
https://melissajaycraig.wordpress.com/author/melissajaycraig
Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg. The kozo flowered. I’ve never seen this before, and really liked the alien-odd blooms. A bay more than a bark. A couple of weeks ago, she began to carry one ear forward, the other out to the side. She loves all the time outdoors when I’ve moved the studio out or when I am in the garden, and May was: lots of both, and that is good. So is the whole pack. Relief when one of the first things she said was We need to find out WHY. It worked, why. It might help, and offered me a choice.

A’s and A’s and A’s – Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg
https://melissajaycraig.wordpress.com/2015/08/10/as-and-as-and-as
Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg. A’s and A’s and A’s. My Women’s Studio Workshop. Class earned a collective A plus-plus-plus; I do. Here we are: Maureen, Barbara, moi, Terri, Jim, Ana, Louise and Dale. I also really enjoyed my roomie, Shelley Thorstensen. During the week as the class was going on, all of WSW was even more of a hive of activity than usual, everyone building up to Friday’s opening of the au-gust festival. At the kitchen table (! S interactive workshop, then packed and loaded everything but what ...

Kozo and Fawns and Bears, Oh My (Peters Valley) – Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg
https://melissajaycraig.wordpress.com/2015/07/29/kozo-and-fawns-and-bears-oh-my-peters-valley
Melissa Jay Craig's Blahg. Kozo and Fawns and Bears, Oh My (Peters Valley). I am at Women’s Studio Workshop, my second stop of the summer. Peters Valley. Who I had met before at Penland and liked (and liked again.) We. A scary pond, and a not-so-scary pond below, on the way to the studio (at top.). I never got a shot of any of the bears, but Karen One (we had two Karens) did, on her phone. Was a rocking Studio Manager / Fellow / Resident who made it all flow smoothly. Rumor has it that a New Jersey speci...
