I’m glad to have finished the bookmark yesterday. The day
before I finished the book I have been reading for Book Club: The Forger’sSpell by Edward Dolnick. He examines the case of a dutch forger who painted “Vermeers”
that Goehring bought during the war. As a journalist, Dolnick amassed quite a
lot of detail regarding this man and forging art in general. If you like
non-fiction, if you are a WWII buff, if you wonder how the art world functions,
this is a good read.
I plan to make my way up to the De Young museum
soon to take a peek at The Girl with the Pearl Earring. It will be there for a
few more weeks. In the meantime, I’m starting on a request of a bug with
buttons that a friend spied on Jane’s list of patterns. It will be a good romp
through split rings!
I am a musician (organ) and a tatter (shuttle mostly) living in California. I have dreamed of combining both of these passions.
