First you pull the dead porcupine over to the side of the road.
It helps to run cloth against the quills.
Easy pickin' now.
I think I can put these to good use.
Here I used some in my first encaustic work.
On our long ride home for Anchorage a few weeks ago I spied this dead porcupine in the road. We turned back quickly to retrieve some free art supplies for the taking... (Thank you Mr. Porcupine)
I would like to announce the winner of my first blogversary giveaway by using a random number generator that I found online. Thank you all for your comments and for checking in on my blog from time to time. I sure do appreciate your input and blog friendships.
And I'm happy to announce that the winner is an Alaskan artist Tam from Tam Johannes Designs who I have known over the years for her fused glass work. Congratulations Tam! and please contact me with your mailing address.
