A somewhat belated look at Sonja Ahlers work. I wrote about our dearly departed houseguest a week or so ago but didn't offer you any images of her F'n AMAZING, delicate, sensitive work.
She makes installation, collage, books, angora bunnies and the world go round.
She loves The Wilson Sisters, April Wine, Narles Barkley and Boney M (who loves her).
She is one of the funniest and most kind ladies I know and can i say how thrilled we are that she's living a (relative) skip away? ...7 hrs. south!
Her most recent book FATAL DISTRACTION is available here.
You can purchase her bunnies here and here on etsy.
You have to be hard on yourself if you need discipline in your work. If you even once say "I'll let this thing go by" all you'll remember is that you let it go by. It's a bit fuss-pot but I don't see any other way of doing it. You can't go through life in a way that suits you without being hard on yourself.- Mavis Gallant
