The Open Studios went well. Tired now. L - I like the idea of just saying 'my work'. R&TL - there must be something about the bowls and words - they just walked out the door - people wanted them in their lives - I'm pleased about that. TT- Thanks for your comment about seeing art in my stuff. Go well.

I have a glassblowing friend who does artwork in glass and also does commissioned pieces that are more functional, like vases and globes for light fixtures - equally beautiful and requiring technical expertise, but he does not consider them to be art. So does it come down to function? And as you say, does it really matter? I've seen so-called art that was really craft, and so-called craft that was definitely art. Maybe it's as my friend once said when I asked him how he defined the difference - "I know it when I see it." And in your work, I definitely see art!Gisizeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08842508709852026701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567531194305090639.post-19083016414934721252011-08-26T22:37:09.926+10:002011-08-26T22:37:09.926+10:00Barry, I imagine the people who own your 'word...Barry, I imagine the people who own your 'word a day' bowls must feel uplifted every time they pass by.ArtPropelledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15853722164314994360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567531194305090639.post-1260157472247074022011-08-26T22:18:42.021+10:002011-08-26T22:18:42.021+10:00I read for F's that last week was a blast ... ...I read for F's that last week was a blast ... i'm sure this week would be too! the bowls and words are really very nice things to have, if for nothing else, just holding the little cool tags in the palms is already calming enough :)<br /><br />Art or Craft ... i've always wondered about that about my stuff too ... so i just end up calling them my work, most of the time :)<br /><br />here's to another splendid open studio weekend!Luthien Thyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07917087004750275087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567531194305090639.post-37569947351551187962011-08-26T20:22:17.646+10:002011-08-26T20:22:17.646+10:00Like these too, perhaps one day! sent cheque today...Like these too, perhaps one day! sent cheque today.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14177627504060328999noreply@blogger.com
