Flower Power! 🌸🪡 These are some of the button flowers I stitched today at Cedar Rapids Museum of Art and Grant Wood Studio FAMILY FUN DAY! I had a really nice time!

I’m especially happy that a brownie troop came to the event and I stitched flowers to the back of their brownie vests! When they look at these in fifty years? I hope they remember the day that a stranger stitched flowers on their vests when they visited the museum.

All my new friends picked out their favorite button to use on their flower. What joy!

Same Same... But Different: A collection of RE.imagined Denim at the Tri.form Style Show. Local Garment Artist: G*e Sharp-Richardson. Thank you to my brother in law Tim Marshall for taking this amazing video that captured the energy of how it feels to put on a pair of old blue jeans and strut on the runway behind Uptown Snug in Uptown Marion District

Now that the style show is over… These four denim jackets are for sale. Details under the painting and coat information under the “models”.

The portrait paintings were found in a grocery bag in the lobby of our apartment complex 1 1/2 years ago. I waited two days before “owning them” and six months before I did anything with them. I think they are acrylic. The artists name was: Ian. Spot washing the jackets recommended.

Note: all of these jackets fit me - all different ways. I have broad shoulders and long arms.

Comment “sold” under the painting. Email me at: [email protected]

Thanks to my brother, Vic who caught these photos of me (the different one) and my two "same same" model sisters (Jill and Lia) during my runway collection a week ago. I am thrilled that both of them were able to make it to the show as models. P.S. I love their shirts...
