Holiday MADNESS
Gift-giving season is always a motivator for great amounts of creative output.
Here's a sampling.
For the snowflakes for my sisinlaw... I did the traditional, fold paper up into triangle and cut out fancy pieces to make paper snowflake thing. Then I placed this cut-out onto some flattened Sculpie, and cut out all the pieces with an exacto knife. Bake, paint, sprinkle some glitter- bam. (well, BAM after a very long time of intricate cutting. haha.)
For my brother, a sculpture of the amazing Johnny Eck- the human torso. Dean was SO disturbed by Johnny's performance in "Freaks" I thought it would be best to make him a commemorative scuplture. I'm not joking, he's going to need a change of underwear.
And for Jeff- I've been working on these for a while whenever there's a slow moment at work. This is what happens when Bonnie finds a coiled up roll of magnetic strip in the back room!
We've got here- an NES and controller, connected by a rubberband I painted black, a Mighty Boosh logo face, a gramophone, a Speak 'N Math, a potentiometer with rubberband wires, PRINCE RANDIAN! (who can be seen above in the old photo with Johnny Eck), and Kevin McCarthy pulling a rabbit out of a hat... (From the Twilight Zone movie)...
I'll probably make more before the week is up. :)
Not pictured, because I don't have photos on my phone- the custom My Little Pony and 100% Felt portrait of Dr. Lucien Sanchez for our neighbors, the DANCING JEFF doll, the AMAZING keyboard/baby head circuit bent masterpiece Jeff is working on currently- and other things I can't remember. We're like little elves toiling away!
squee!
