Pencil Art by Jennifer Maestre

Jennifer Maestre is a legend. These are amazing!!!I have taken a few sections from her Artist Statment:
'My sculptures were originally inspired by the form and function of the sea urchin.'
'To make the pencil sculptures, I take hundreds of pencils, cut them into 1-inch sections, drill a hole in each section (to turn them into beads), sharpen them all and sew them together. The beading technique I rely on most is peyote stitch.'

Otago Peninsula
Easter weekend... the weather was finally clear... no wind, no sleet, no hail... and lots of SUN!!!!!!
We hung the washing out and set off for the Peninsula (the complete other side of Dunedin to where we live!)
View Larger Map
We went for a walk to Lovers Leap, and the Chasm.... VERY steep! Such a beautiful rugged coastline. To get to the viewpoint, you walk through some fields, with sheep and tussock, flax, ToiToi (pretty happy lookin sheep!)
And there was a shearing shed too.... recently used, but a pretty old building..
