Melnik Bouquet | Quirk
https://jessicastraus.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/melnik-bouquet
The intersection between quirky and beautiful. April 29, 2015. May 2, 2015. I’m back home. Happy to see that our piles of snow melted in my absence. However, I’m not quite ready to put the bones behind me, and hopefully you’re not either since I have a couple more ossuaries to tell you about (what a relief to post from a desktop computer rather than pecking away on the phone.). One of our last outings in the Czech Republic brought us to the small town of Melnik. You see the skulls spelling in Latin, yes?

The intersection between quirky and beautiful. August 21, 2015. August 21, 2015. Hope I haven’t kept you awake at night wondering what could possibly have been an even better discovery at Green Animals Topiary Gardens. Than the privet elephant, lion, and giraffe (I did know, after all, to expect that menagerie). Lured by the impressive array of vegetables (artichokes in New England! And his lovely family? Country who is doing a darned good job keeping these garden folk in fresh clothing. A church going w...

The intersection between quirky and beautiful. Isolation breeds, well, QUIRKINESS. November 10, 2015. November 11, 2015. Just got back from my second visit to Newfoundland. 8220;, which the people of Newfoundland call themselves is thought of by some to be a derogatory term if used by outsiders. Outsiders, by the way, are called “CFA’s” or “Come from Away” ) There’s an amazing can-do, pull yourselves up by the boot straps mentality here that’s inspiring. It’s a hard scrabble place that makes up in ...

The intersection between quirky and beautiful. Historic, Haunting Eastern State Penitentiary. March 27, 2015. March 27, 2015. For those of you who pining for a very unusual and moving site visit closer to home (OK, I’m making an assumption a lot of my readers are from Boston) you could visit the Eastern State Penitentiary. Of the architecture was designed to house inmates in solitary cells (a Quaker based idea, considered a forward thinking, humane notion at the time! Artists can apply to do an art insta...
Curio Museum: Davistown in Liberty Maine | Quirk

The intersection between quirky and beautiful. Curio Museum: Davistown in Liberty Maine. June 19, 2015. February 15, 2016. It’s not every day that you get a handwritten note scratched onto the back of an envelope inviting you to hang your work in one of your favorite little museums. When that happens, say, YES! And so I did when I saw a penned note to me on the museum newsletter faithfully sent out by the Davistown Museum. Skip in his natural habitat. Excellent suspenders! Head to Liberty Tool! And to he...

Wood Is Art: Fun With Scraps
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2015/02/fun-with-scraps.html
Monday, February 2, 2015. Acrylic and varnish on wood. 105" x 5.5" x 2.25". I enjoyed pairing them together and examining different ways they could be assembled - looking at the relationships, interactions, and figuring out the configurations that resonated with me. Acrylic and varnish on wood. 1475" x 4.75" x 2.25". I like how they are simple pairings, just two pieces that somehow seem made for each other, by pure chance alone. Acrylic and varnish on wood. 135" x 7" x 3.5". Acrylic and varnish on wood.

Wood Is Art: January 2015
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 29, 2015. Is a study in contrasts, weight and weightlessness; smooth vs rough; natural vs man-made. It also contrasts with much of his other work in that it is much simpler and less refined than most "Calders" you'll see. Lignum vitae, walnut, steel rods, and painted wood. I also love how the "wing" is floating high above the "rock" next to the round star/planet/sun. Like a lot of the idiosyncratic Calder wood sculptures. Museum of Modern Art. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. In painting it...
Wood Is Art: More Barn Art
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2015/07/more-barn-art.html
Friday, July 10, 2015. As I mentioned a couple of years ago. Untitled September 2013 barn art pieces on their Marshfield, VT location. I found the process of playing with the shapes and colors, and trying/struggling to make something that I'm proud of, a good exercise. June 2015a (barn art). Exterior latex paint on plywood. 345" x 24" x 1.5". I think this one in particular would look great blown-up, perhaps to three times its current size. They work on carports too! June 2015b (barn art). So site-specifi...
Wood Is Art: September 2014
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 18, 2014. Reflections" @ The Kent Museum. I'm feeling like I should have my artist license revoked for belatedly announcing a exhibit of my work in a museum but luckily for me I'm license free so I'm allowed to continue my profession regardless of any malpractice on my part. So Last Saturday, September 13, was the opening reception for the exhibit Reflections. Was particularly apt because they seemed to reflect each other. Mixed media on wood. 49" x 9.5" x 2". Mixed media on wood.
Wood Is Art: October 2014
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 17, 2014. Summer Home Improvement Projects. Once the snow melts and it warms up enough to set up the miter saw in my carport, I can start a number of long over-due home improvement projects, one of which I have been thinking about for over ten years. As a side note, I'm particularly happy with the header over the inside of the door, it is much more interesting than if I had used the standard ninety degree cuts, and now I can enjoy looking at it too. Here is a second view of the island....

Wood Is Art: December 2014
http://woodisart.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 8, 2014. In Pursuit of A Great Liberation Through Seeing. Over the summer I reworked my dining room table, adding an experimental acrylic painting to the surface. I liked how it turned out, and especially enjoyed the surprises that would arise in the painting process. Each of the geometric shapes had a blend of colors, unplanned, that contrasted with one another in a way that emphasizes the brush strokes. So I decided to try the same technique on non-functional pieces. 26" x 17" x 2".

Quirk | The intersection between quirky and beautiful
The intersection between quirky and beautiful. Long Live Bernard Langlais! August 8, 2015. August 8, 2015. One more Mid Coast Maine post (It’s summer in New England, after all–no reason to travel any further than Maine). Turns out–not hard at all! The road dipped and inclined and suddenly the Trojan Horse my parents had described rose up on the side of the road.We screeched to a halt and tumbled out of the car. Excellent reuse of an old bathtub! My favorite piece of Langlais’s, a depiction of Chris...

Saturday, January 12, 2008. Posted by travels at 9:45 PM. Links to this post. Sunday, June 17, 2007. St Peters Basilica was the same as I remember it. Beautifully Baroque, the height of the dome still impresses. The bronze Baldachino, Michaelangelo’s Pieta and the ornate work of the basilica were as extraordinary to me as they were in my memory as a girl of fourteen. The adult just had the better camera. We didn’t chance it, although quite tempting. Posted by travels at 4:34 PM. Links to this post. Await...

Sunday, March 20, 2011. Tips for Saving Money on Vacation. As I write my blog and continue to dream about where I would like to one day go on vacation, I thought it may be helpful to actually consider some of the ways to make these destinations more realistic. One of the biggest hurdles stopping people from travelling is of course the high cost. Between expensive international flights, accommodations, food and entertainment it can easily become overwhelming. Stick to Your Budget. Friday, March 11, 2011.
