Let's just jump right into it, shall we?
My Ghostly Lace totes are finally in the shop!


This is the first design with the others soon to follow. I had the folks at Westar Solutions to burn the screen for me. They are fantastic-quite friendly and fast! I haven't screenprinted in forever, so it was so much fun to lay out the newspaper, throw on some gloves, and get to work. Someone asked me recently what was my obsession with lace/doilies. Well, besides just their base loveliness, I read a lot into them. Symbolically, they represent ghosts to me...the weaving of memories and love.
I don't have any of my own artwork hanging up in my home. I don't have an aversion to it, just never took the time to put some up. Well, I ordered a test print of "It's The Same Dream That Lasts All Night", and was really pleased. I framed it in one of my brass frames and just love it...

Another exciting thing is that the writing and tracklisting for the upcoming St. Mary's record is complete! Here are the songs...
"In Dreams"
"Never Let Me Go"
"A Light...A Light"
"It's The Same Dream That Lasts All Night"
"Witches..."
"Valerie"
"An Aurora"
"The Ending"
The record opens with a sampled line from the Australian film, "Picnic at Hanging Rock". If you can guess it, I'll send you a vinyl copy once it's finished!
And to usher in your weekend, here's some more Austra...
And my favorite Nico song...

That tote is so lovely! All antique with a hint of goth (just how I like em).
If you play the Austra and Nico clips you posted at the same time it sounds very haunting and beautiful.
p.s. love that tote!
....almost forgot to add my guess for your record's opening line from the film.
Is it this?
"What we see and what we seem are but a dream, a dream within a dream."
I'd love to hear your record, very much.
Elskan! You've guessed correctly!! Email your address to monpetitfantome(at)gmail(dot)com, and you'll receive a copy of the record once it's completed. Thanks for playing :)
xo!
Oh wow, completely forgot to check back the comments here to see if I got it! So excited....emailing you right now :)
