Dowtown Abbey, etsy, glass, lampwork, Maggie Smith, TV review catldy99
9:28 pm
This was a special week on Comcast and we were able to catch up on Season 1 and 2 of this terrific series which we have missed. Words cannot express how much I love this series. Each character is so finely etched and with human strokes. Fate deals its blows to us all whether gentry or cook. I find it refreshing that indiscretion happens and yet the indiscreet person has many valuable human qualities. Nobody is totally black and white. Maggie Smith is so great as the Dowager. There is sisterly competition and cattiness, as well as kindness. I hope you have been able to view this special TV offering.

Bellevue, Bellevue WA, Gathering, glass art, ISGB, lampwork, WA catldy99

I attended officially on Friday and what a wonderful experience. Ginny Ruffner gave the keynote address and was most inspirational. She has graced dowtown Seattle with her work in the form of a giant flower pot sculpture. Her sense of humor and positive attitude in spite of a handicap gives us all an important lesson and heroine to follow.
I visited the Open Torch the evening before and picked up a couple tips. A Bellevue art fair was right outside the door so when I tired of listening to presentations I went out and looked. I definitely noticed the Seattle area demands and gets more money for art than those of us toiling in Portland. Bellevue has a new feel and look, but is very pleasant. The Hyatt was huge, but easy to navigate, and the staff very friendly. I would definitely recommend a stay. Very…. nice. The highlight of the day was a presentation by Marcy Lamberson from Atlanta, GA. Her Basset Hound bead is a true work of craftsmanship and we were treated to a video of its creation step by step… Picked up some pointers. Larry Scott was a subtle jokester and welcome after all the other information. Sometimes not so subtle jokester. He has for many years been an artist/craftsman to emulate. The evening was gallery tours, a couple of hiccups in this, but it was nice to see the work. My next post will be about the Glass Museum in Tacoma, Washington with I hope a lot of pics. Tune in tomorrow. .
