Diaphanous Gesture Gradient to Celebrate Spring

Happy first official day of spring!

I imagine so many people are looking forward to this unusually cold winter to be over.

Personally, I wish we had gotten more snow where I’m located just to shut everything down and cover everything in a pristine white blanket. I unexpectedly got my wish this past weekend.

However, when I saw this Kickstarter campaign for Janet Echleman, an artist who creates such diaphanous sculptures as soft-gesture gradients that float in the air like giant beautiful jellyfish and counterpoint to hard-edged city surroundings, I couldn’t resist posting for the first day of spring.

Wouldn’t you like to look over head and see this?

It just opens up your world.

Click the image/ video link to learn more about this project: how her sculptures first started from adaptation, what they celebrate and where you can see it soon, as it has been funded.

Now I have another reason to go to Vancouver.

 

Her project was funded and I’ll share updates as a contributor.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
