Sheep and Ferns…and the seven step process

A while back I mentioned that when we were last in Asheville at the Fiber Fair I’d garnered a cute new addition to my Studio flotsam as well as another handy addition to my pottery mug collection…. well finally, here are some pix … of the Sheep and the Mug…. since I had the lights out – futzing with another project….

And here’s product of the futz project…..

Step 1: pinch some likely looking fern objects from the flower arrangements at a Charity Benefit event…
Step 2: forget them for at least 24hrs, tucked in the backseat of the car…
Step 3: try to revive said sad fern bits
Step 4: give up on the revival step and go straight to step 6
Step 5: consider doing laundry… or….
Step 6: get out the lights and shoot the darned things….. whithered or not…

Step 7: Muck about with them in Photoshop…. (very important!)
