That\u2019s my grandmother with my dad\u2019s pet pigeon on her head…really. She is the inspiration for pigeonhead<\/strong>, an experiment in all things creative, crafty, and cobbled.<\/p>\n Since my grandmother taught me to sew at age 10, I have had a love of crafting with (and collecting) textiles. Alas, as I moved through high school and college, creative pursuits took a back seat to math and science courses, followed by career and family. After many years away, I am ready to scratch that creative itch again. I just want to play and see where my imagination takes me. I love working with vintage items. I try to be “green” by re-using, altering and re-purposing what I have in my stash of stuff…or what I might find while thrifting or at a yard sale. Most of all, I just want to have fun\u2026channeling my silly, wonderful grandmother as I go.<\/p>\n Lisa Kaplan lives in Holliston, Massachusetts with her husband, 2 cats and 1 dog, and one son in college. In her previous lives she has worked for a newspaper, a hospital, a retail store and local political campaigns. Hoarding materials and ideas for years, she is now trying to bring them to life.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.0.66″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.66″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.66″ background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.66″ background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” border_style=”solid”] Artist Statement That\u2019s my grandmother with my dad\u2019s pet pigeon on her head…really.
