The odin is a present for a good friend. I’m working on some new ships and boats- progress photos soon.
feet, two dogs, a show girl and a fella
I’m working on owls.
And a photo I got at the flea market yesterday. I wish I had time to go through the box carefully. I usually look at pictures like this but don’t buy them – trying to have less stuff – but I had to take this one, so many things to like but mostly the little white dog, he seems to be the only one not in on the fun.
tuesday morning
miniature finery
Tiny top hats, corsages and boutonnières.
And a little blind lamb.
theater
I made the photo above for illustration friday , the theme is “theater’.
white donkey
This little white donkey is tiny – not much bigger than my thumbnail. I love taking his picture, this one makes me think of kaspar hauser.
armadillo
I’m making a few collages and paintings for an ad job, in the little painting above an armadillo and his kitten friend sail the high seas.
titanic at the half moon hotel
This photograph was a gift from my favorite guy at the flea market -(park slope) and I love it. He stopped showing up in early summer last year. I’ve wondered and asked about him since and I found out a few weeks ago that he died. He took the photo at the Half Moon Hotel in Coney Island, I’m not sure when- 70’s or 80’s probably. He was a painter and photographer. I only new his first name – John.
under the knife
The Avocet has never been very steady on her feet and she is having a little operation to correct the problem.
new sweethearts available to order
I’ve been working on some new things for spring and they are available now in my shop.
*update – sold out but more coming soon.
There is also a new one of a kind set – claude and gus. I’ll have something similar available to order soon.
a charm
Or amulet, or talisman, a lucky or magic thing made from a glass bottle stopper washed up on plum beach in Brooklyn that came to me by way of the park slope flea market and bits of 19th century threads collected in Japan by my friend Stephen.
I love the idea of all the things that had to happen in the world for these little bits to come together.
And Jason and the Argonauts.
I’ve been going through old files and came across this still from the film I cut out of a newspaper. I love the image just on it’s own and I loved the movie as a kid, especially the stop motion bits. You can see them here on youtube if you like.
