Tempe, AZ Weaver/silversmitth/artist/engineer(!) Morris Muskett (who doesn’t ever seem to sleep) will be at the Wheelwright museum’s Case Trading Post August 20-23, during the upcoming Indian Market in Santa Fe.   Morris will be participating in a round table discussion on Thursday, August 20 and will be part of a group demonstration on Friday, August 21.  He’ll also be demonstrating at other times throughout the weekend.  Morris’ work is always evolving, so every time you see him, you’re find him working with new materials, new media  or trying a completely new genre.  The medicine bag above is an example of one of his newer pieces.

See Morris’ web site for more information.  Be sure to stop by and say hello!

Hagoshíí (so long for now)

    kathleen higham: I'd like to join with you when it starts again!

    Mary Walker: The Munsell color system was developed to provide a precise numeric description of color based on hue, value or lightness and color purity (referred to by Munsell as chroma). This precision is helpful in mixing dyes to achieve the desired results. There is a Munsell study group on Weavolution.com, but I was too busy teaching right now to join. I hope there will be enough people interested to do another group later this year. If you haven't already joined Weavolution, I'd encourage you to do it. The current study group is called the Munsell+dye study group.

    Emmy: I'm curious now. What is a Munsell group? Thanks Emmy
