Found

I was driving the kids to the park and was at a stop and I spied this art on a post. Luckily I had my camera so I shot it from the car. It's just down the street from my house and I wonder if it is to be taken or what?? It gives me the idea to leave nailed voodoos up all over Portland :D It'll take a little disipline, like making the time to make extras but I should do it. I mean, if I saw a surprise voodoo nailed to a pole it would completely thrill me to tears :D But I'll write a TAKE ME note.
K, someone check on me in a few weeks to make sure I'm not just talking to talk.

Primitive

I love my latest dolls, I do, like my own kids, but I feel like I am getting away from junky primitive dirty ratty thready loose ends, which I feel is home.

I feel inspired to make something really raggedy.

But I have a movie to see tonight, but let's hope I can keep that dirty thought :D

Truman and Monster Lucia

Truman is a sweet boy clown. I am not a fan of scary clowns, but a creepier one may be coming for those who are.
And about Monster Lucia....
Monster Lucia had to spend a month with her Aunt. Bored silly describes it all. So when she was given her Aunt's old paperdolls to play with her little monster mind quickly went to work and she gave them all human faces and choreographed a bloodstained melodrama.

Sofia

Sofia's papa was the Extraordinary Tattooed Man and her mama was the Beautiful And Exotic Tightrope Walker. Sofia had known magic all of her days and would sometimes paint these scenes in her notebooks.

These are inspiring to me

I love Mississippi Ave. I took all these yesterday.

Mississippi Ave

Man, I tell you, this is my second day of a reallllllly slow computer and it is enough to bring forth the mother of all swear words.
Anyway....
Went to Mississippi Ave. today, I have never been and I loved it! I have never been to the shop Flutter and still haven't really because it was closed....but I got a few shots through the glass. I have to go back!! And next door was another shop named Front Porch which was soooooo cute, too! I love this street. All I am posting tonight are the Flutter pics.
It has been raining all day and even though I love the rain my hair hates it :D

er...Jacinta

...was making monsters last night and I saw this pile of pink wool felt I had bought for rosy cheeks. But somehow the cheeks haven't worked out lately so I thought pink hair! A snow cone pile of pink hair! Yeah! So I made this monster head and hair and then I thought I just couldn't add on skinny legs again and I had this spider sketch handy, so I added spider legs which can be interpreted as sea thingies, He-man arms...I dunno. I love her funky repulsive allure, but next time I will make her truly girly and not so monsterish :D Just cuz that was the orginal vision, haha.
That X isn't a bow, but it looks like one. It's a pirate touch.
So meet Jacinta,he she wrestler prison matron...a helluva girl.
