Hanging

Thank you to everyone who came to the Skinny Dippin bar. Here are some pictures of what was on the walls for those who couldn't make it. Once a month Skinny Dippin puts together a creative bar of such and this month they invited me to hang some things. Some of the masks I have been working on with some other experiments finally made it out of the house. 

A special thanks to Hey Mr.Jellyfish and AllaboutZurich for setting it all up and Frank Powers for playing such wonderful music. All the art is still on the walls at Zwinglistrasse 25, 8004 Zürich and for sale. If anyone is interested contact me at

Small odds and ends

Some ombre experiments, beadings and woven zipper bags.

Summer Sunshine

To continue with my mask series I made another... entitled, Gold Panda

 It has been too hot to work lately... But I have more projects on the way. I have been posting teasers on Instagram because I have been in-transit a lot more lately.

This is what ends up happening if you don't make concrete plans over a three day weekend.

Boy am I looking forward to my next skype call. 

Pushing forward

Le weekend sketch

I have been quiet about my Lost at Sea book for a while. In attempt to gain momentum I have given my Oscar puppet a fresh coat of paint.

Any interest (I am looking for a producer and or publisher) in Lost at Sea I would be very grateful if you contacted me at Conact@dbuerli.com

Lost at Sea also has its own facebook page now too.

Things still come out

Even when I am tired.

Spring

Weaving and sewing zipper bags again. 

The view from my window is really wonderful at the moment. 

Late night watercolor session. 

A delay

At first I thought my piece was lost but in the end it was just slow to arrive gallery. It did after all have to travel overseas. 

But now available online at Gallery1988

Rip open your conciseness

inspired by Fringe

And now another lazy day's worth of weaving

..to be sewn into a zipper pouch, complete with handmade tassel. Now I just need to buy a sheep. I am taking orders.

Weekends

Time is becoming more precious. So I invest it.

 Hairaising

Mindless

And more weaving...

I am thinking on buying a real loom... a 4 shaft maybe.

Bad Robot

Though it is clear that I am a big fan of Lost for the upcoming JJ Abrams show I thought I would do a piece on Fringe.

Some process and a teaser photo.

I have taken up more weaving.

Weave

My interest in textiles has spun a little out of control. I am now have been feverishly weaving my free time.

I found an old hobby loom while I was at home last month. It seems to suit me fine for now while I am learning. I also got cute new scissors from Mylan (Thank you!)

Some pattern and color testing

So I guess I will have plenty of coaster around my flat soon. It is a start.

Slow and Steady

Zeughaus was kind enough to commission me to make puppets of themselves. Here is a bit of the process.

 Certainly more to come.
