surrounded by sadness

PLUSH YOU

show opens this friday OCT 12th at SCHMANCY, in seattle. reception from 5-9 pm.
i'll have 3 pieces in it. this is one of them.

corns

usually I would do a drawing before I make any plush, but for the corns and apples I did not. it was more about making a kernel-like texture of corn. that was the most tedious part about making the corn. this was a plain piece of fleece I sewed this texture onto.

ripe for the picking!

check out his 'a peel!'
these are also for the food show at munky king nov. 15th.

BEFORE and AFTER

apple skins

and apple cores

I made these red apples out of red velour, good amount of sheen and stretch.

I called this blog 'progress report' because I really enjoy the process of making things. figuring out the shapes, colors, etc. so I am going to try and put more 'progress' pictures in the future. these apples are for a food show at munky king gallery in los angeles opening NOV.15th. I'll post more info and pictures closer to the show date.

pensive thoughts

pretty flowers

the orange ones remind me of some sort of muppet.

e-cards

I recently did some e-cards for hallmark. the great animation was done by kristen mccormick, who animates on foster's, so the quality is pretty darn good!
to watch them both click here, look for the bug icons.
