LISA LILLIBRIDGE VIDA COLLECTION
I’m moving out of my studio and I want to honor the 15+ years I’ve worked there with an informal (and last minute) open house. Over the years my parties were known for two things, well, maybe three—art, noisy kids and peanut M & Ms.
There will be art, jewelry and some accessories for sale and a few items simply for viewing that I’m unable to part with right now. I can guarantee that this will be a very low key event. Please just stop by and say hello if you’re out and about on Saturday. I would love to see you even if just for a minute. Please share this or bring a friend.
You can do a quick run through of my space, say hello, grab some M & Ms and browse through Deep 6 Goods that is just below me. Joey’s shop has very cool stuff. Here’s the link: http://www.deep6goods.com/.

Here are some images from last night’s STRUT fashion show in Burlington, Vermont. These are the more candid shots of getting ready and going through rehearsal. We had such a great day and hanging out together was really fun. Thank you to all who helped make the show happen. I won’t name you all, there are too many of you who supported Elizabeth and I produce our collection. You know who you are. Many thanks.
now that all of the pieces are created. It’s time to look for subtle threads (literally & figuratively) that unite the collection. I love this part almost as much as pizza & champagne when we’re all done. I really like that part. Elizabeth Bunsen’s dyed fabric, my work in scrap leather and photography and Jane Frank’s jewelry is telling a story just as we had hoped from the beginning. Storytelling through this collaborative work is maybe the best part of the whole shootin’ match in my estimation.
I would think it’s a co-op of about five different artists and I wouldn’t even know what to pay attention to. No wonder when I get there I’m not always sure what I’m going to work on—I want to do it all and sometimes, unfortunately, that’s immobilizing.
I think at this stage of my life I am seeking a more direction.
I don’t want to get static or rigid, but good grief, I think there’s a space in between.
I’ve decided to take a few minutes, get quiet and see what I want to work on BEFORE I take off for my studio. I’m hoping that simple act will get me more focused and deliberate. I’ll let you know if it works…but I might forget and you may need to e-mail and ask me about how it turned out. It seems like this just might be a natural state of our world…but I want to fight it. There are so many things to pay attention to that it’s overwhelming. OK, off to the studio, but first, I want to check out that song, book, technique, read my e-mail, the news, oh there’s a video I bookmarked…aaaarrgggghhhh.
