Dipping my toes in the crankie waters … I’d really like to make more (I have an idea of a series of small motorized ones.) In the meantime, for practice I took the drawings of an abandoned pop-up book, “There Was An Old Woman Who Swallowed A Fly,” and put them in a GreenRoads CBD box. SUPER EXCITED to participate in Sue Truman’s / @suetruman1015 matchbox crankie workshop this weekend! (Oh, and big thanks to @miclaw13 for suggesting I make a crankie in the first place. xo Also big thanks to @emikesell and @jed_the_doofius for their long ago chats and inspiration for this interpretation of the story. xo) #crankies #minicrankies #crankie #movingpanorama https://www.instagram.com/p/CaFNLuBO9rM/?utm_medium=tumblr

Martha Ann Honeywell had an extraordinary sixty year (1798-1856) career, touring the country and the world primarily by herself. She was a master artist in paper cutting, needlework, painting, drawing, wax work, and miniature drawing. Also, an amazing new detail of her life has been revealed in “Mouth & Toes: The World of 19th Century Silhouette Artists with Disabilities”. My collaborator, Laurel Daen, has discovered that in addition to performing for royalty while in Europe, Honeywell married a show man named Mr. Bagshaw. She toured with him and his menagerie until the time of his death. I love that our book shares this new information to the world! (Page detail from book, in cranky, accordion, and soon-to-be eBook form.) Currently on view at the Northwest Arts Center (@northwestartscenter.)

It’s impossible to talk about 19th century silhouettes without talking about the Peale Museum and Moses Williams. Williams, who was formerly enslaved by Peale, cut thousands of silhouettes using the physiognotrace. He was an extraordinary artist and makes a brief appearance in “Mouth & Toes: The World of 19th Century Silhouette Artists with Disabilities”, (a collaboration with Laurel Daen) but Williams absolutely deserves his own book. Thank you, @efsacco for your groundbreaking research into his work and legacy. Currently on view at the Northwest Arts Center (@northwestartscenter.)

Before the opening event last Thursday evening, the wonderful Greg Vettel and Sallie Mitchell of the Northwest Arts Center (@northwestartscenter) at Minot State University did a walk-through of the show for me via Zoom. So exciting!! I’m particularly thrilled because it was the debut of Mouth & Toes: The World of 19th Century Silhouette Artists with Disabilities, a collaboration with Laurel Daen. Seen here are two crankies/moving panoramas, 4 flip books, animations of artists in action, and four free-standing accordion books. Thank you, Greg and Sallie!
