I'm having a nice time playing along at home on this: "I work well under pressure," as an old Nebbish sticker says. The deadlines get me kicked into gear: I spend a good portion of my time pondering and then, when I must stop pondering and get to work, zoom, I'm off and running.
I'm thankful for the extra week extended for the Ellowyne challenge, as it gave me more work time -- I had already reached the end of my allotted ponder time and was already working on outfits, and this gave me the opportunity to make them the way I like to: by hand, with French seams.
About Me
- AliMcJ
- All I ever wanted to be was an Artist and a teacher. I'm lucky: that's what I am. I am a watercolor painter with a Master of Arts Degree in Fine Art, a B.A. in Art Education with a minor in English, and I have exhibited internationally in competitions, group exhibits, and one-man shows (and I still prefer "he" to "they" as the general first-person pronoun). I taught ESL to adults for over 20 years and have had one-man shows in Taipei, Los Angeles, and New York. Early on, I was thrilled to do an Album Cover for Warner Brothers (a or the Fugs Album). I sell on eBay, under the same ID: books, dolls, art and art dolls.
