Rockethub Fundraiser: Astrological Chart by Susan Rendell

by sarah on November 18, 2011

Your chart prepared by Susan Rendell. Includes one-hour counseling session, plus a printed summary of the main elements of the chart. And a cup of tea. Also included: audio book of In the Chambers of the Sea, Rendell’s award-winning collection of short stories. One year subscription for you, plus one to give as a gift and a healthy dose of good karma and our gratitude.  (2 available)

Astrologer will need date, time and place of birth. (If the time is not known, I can still provide a fair bit of basic information.)

Choose a focus: What’s up with me right now? Why is my kid acting like that? Are my husband/boyfriend (wife/girlfriend) and I compatible? (For the latter, I need the other half’s birth info.) Career, love, kids and whatever else you can think of . . .

Susan Rendell is the author of In the Chambers of the Sea, which won the Newfoundland and Labrador/Bennington Gate Book Award for Fiction and was short-listed for the Danuta Gleed Award and the Winterset Award. It also garnered a Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council’s Emerging Artist of the Year Award for its author.

Handprinted Original Woodcuts by Graham Blair

by sarah on November 17, 2011

Twist of Capelin (edition/350), 12 x 12

Giant Squid (edition/250), 9 x 12

Peter Pan (edition/350), 12 x 18

Only one of each print available. **

Graham says about his work, “Each of my print editions begins as a sketch transferred onto a piece of hardwood which I then carve in relief using a combination of knives and gouges. Although I do not make Japanese-style prints, my process of making woodcuts is informed by Japanese methods where a bevelled knife is used to do most of the cutting and gouges with different curvatures are used to remove the non-image area. Each impression is hand-printed by burnishing (or rubbing) the back of the paper with a bamboo spoon after the block has been inked.”
