i made this bear for a friend's new baby. [premie baby - but she's fine]. something about a bear being able to dress up as a frog really cracked me up. plus i was literally so excited to go to michael's to buy googly eyes. when was the last time i used googly eyes?!?
the pattern came from this book:
ISBN978-4-277-49039-9
i really want to make the elephant finger puppets
i was looking at my desk in the studio yesterday. i can spy the evidence of at least 4 projects in the works. the pile of papers is all the research i did for pigmentary portraits - my upcoming show with lisa congdon at art stream studios . it's coming up quick. more on it very soon.
happy thursday! tonight i am meeting up with a friend from LA who is in town and we'll be stopping by the show at rare device
what a sweet bear. love the frog costume. :) enjoy the rare device show and say hi to lisa.
what a lovely gift!
i can't wait to see your pigment work. i can't wait. i can't wait.
i want photographic evidence of you in a jumpsuit... have fun tonight!
