I have an interview!

April 27th, 2012

Nice news for me!  Lisa Nelson, an artist friend of mine – a wonderfully talented lady, asked me recently to complete an interview for her blog series.  It is now posted, and you can visit with this link: http://lisanelsonart.blogspot.com/p/artist-interviews-and-links-my-favs.html .  I think you will enjoy it!  It’s filled with pictures, and since I can be sorta chatty, you get a lot of that as well!  So, please check out the interview, and while you are at Lisa’s site, look around!  She is such a terrific artist!  You are sure to see lots to enjoy!

We can do this together

In an effort to blog more, I was reading some news pieces online, and came across this story which I believe impacts everyone.  According to these stats, over 5 million children are forced into slave labor – in brothels, in mines, etc. all over the globe.  We can all make a difference for these children who have no voice.  Please follow         this link and see what you can do to help!  This story has appeared on msn Living, and I want to give credit to them for it.

Coming tomorrow to pfatt marketplace!

April 9th, 2012

I have been SUCH a slacker in posting!  Waay too much going on, but things seem to have moderated, so I’ll try to be better!  Really, I promise!  So, here’s a little peek, or rather three peeks, at my pieces which will be available tomorrow when we have an update on pfatt marketplace!  My theme is mamas and babies, so I have three pieces which try to live up to that.

This is Molly and her babies – a tribute to my beloved Molly who lived with us for many years.

And, if you love seeing birds and their babes, here is a mama bluebird with a little offspring…..
And finally, a little girl surrounded by her “babies” – her dolly and her stuffed toys.  This is sort of a piece about me.  When I was a child, I used to sit on a stone bench beside my grandmother’s fish pond.  I’d take my dolly, my books and enjoy the peace and quiet……
So, there you have it!  My offerings for this month.  Please join all of us at pfattmarketplace tomorrow at 10 am Pacific, 11 am Mountain, noon Central, and 1 pm Eastern time for lots of beautiful spring creations!  And, if you have any questions, please contact me at ginny@ginnydiezelstudios.com.  Also, to see some closeups of these pieces and to see hundreds of pictures of my work, please follow this link to my flickr site!  Thanks!  Ginny

Hippity Hoppity Tomorrow!

March 9th, 2012

Hi everyone!  I have been such a slacker on my blog that I am ashamed!  Good grief!  The time is dashing away, and it’s already March!  I’ve been working hard on sculpting pieces for Gallerie ll which licensed my work last spring.  I’m nearly finished, and it has been a busy time for sure.  At least I am keeping up with my new pieces for pfattmarketplace, and that’s why I am posting!  I have been making lots of bunnies for spring – I’m calling them Wittle Wabbits!  Here’s a sneak peek!

They are tiny little things – 1 1/4 inches to 2 1/2 inches tall!    Each has a different adornment, and they’ve been sculpted in paperclay, one at a time.  Hop on over tomorrow to pfattmarketplace at 10 am Pacific, 11 Mountain, noon Central, and 1 pm Eastern time to see what our artists have in store for you this month!  See you there!

They’re here!

February 10th, 2012

It’s February 10th, and time for the monthly update on pfattmarketplace!  Yesterday, I posted a picture of one of my wee cottages which will be available today.  Now, here’s a picture of all three!

They are 3 – 4 inches tall, sculpted from paperclay, painted with many washes of acrylics, and sealed for protection and antiqued.  Please come and join us at
www.pfattmarketplace.com for exciting new artwork!  See you there, and thanks for looking!

Wee cottages!

February 8th, 2012

I have been waaaay lax about keeping up on my blog!  Life intervenes, as I usually say.  Just a lot going on, but I had vowed to myself that this year I would do better.  Well……..So, in an effort to give everyone some upcoming news, when pfattmarketplace updates on Friday, the 10th, I will have some wee cottages available.  At this time of the year, we’re still in a bit of a nesting mode – it’s cold, and snuggling in at night seems like a good thing to do.  I decided to create some little homes to keep that theme going into spring.

Each cottage has been sculpted from paperclay with loads of detail, right down to tiled roofs.  Atop each cottage is a bird.  Did you know that the bird symbolizes freedom, because of its ability to fly?  And, in many cultures around the world, the bird has a spiritual significance as a link between the heavens above and the earth below.  If you are fortunate to have a nesting bird close by, that symbolizes good fortune!  There you have it!  Below is a picture of one of three cottages which will be available.  I’ll have the trio up tomorrow!

They did it!

February 6th, 2012

My wonderful friends, the Friedman brothers, did it!  They made their Super Bowl ad for Doritos, placed in the top five for over 6100 entries, and through nationwide voting, theirs aired last night during the second quarter of the game.  The USAToday ad meter totaled votes, and Doritos awarded Jonathan $1,000,000 late last night!  Man’s Best Friend!  What a great ad, and what a story!  The guys spent $20, shot it in the yard and in their kitchen, and used Huff, the Great Dane, who belongs to family friends.  The rest, as they say, really IS history!  And, Jonathan is being booked on the Tonight Show!  I’ll let you know when!

Available now!

Look at what’s coming!

December 7th, 2011

It’s just 2 1/2 weeks until Christmas!  Gasp!  I haven’t even done my shopping, but that’s okay.  I enjoy going to my fave stores – Barnes & Noble is at the top of my list.  I could spend days there – who am I kidding!  I HAVE spent days there!  Now that I have returned from doing my shows, I’ll have more time to browse the books and magazines, grab something to nibble on, and enjoy the sights and sounds of the holidays.

Because I enjoy festive decorating and wearing of the holiday colors, I’ll be showing some holiday pins when pfattmarketplace updates on the 10th of this month.  Here’s a sneak peek at some of the goodies!  More in a day or two!
