Is almost complete, except yes, for the tail. This guy has really long legs...and real cat whiskers for his own. I had another rabbit with upright ears that I sold a few years ago, but this guy has a whole different vibe.
I keep thinking I should pink up his nose a bit. Maybe later.
are all done! Except for tails and all the little bits of touch up I still need to do...so, really, not done, but I am getting close. I have to install my exhibition on June 4, and I think I can see the end. This little donkey showed up in an earlier post, but has got limbs now. This happens to be my mom's favorite (she has two donkeys of her own.)
And then this deer is one of my favorites. I have had the body in my work closet for at least a year, waiting for a time to get finished. I also am making her a little mirrored vanity and stool...she needs a place to do her makeup.
Friends.
I feel like I am making progress. I don't know if it is fast enough...I am installing my exhibition "Pulling Stitches" at Hutchinson Center for the Arts on June 4. This is the third of nine figures whose got his limbs attached...and all of the tails are still pretty raw. But I am getting there.
Here is some progress on my Alpaca...I don't know why I have to cram it all onto the computer table...maybe because these two like to take the table.
The legs next to him are for the donkey and rhino...I have several in progress at the moment.
I just finished my sloth. He is one of my favorites. I had a hard time sewing in the limbs...so I might have to go back and rework the connections after my exhibition in June. I've got nine more to put together and lots of little fixes to make. But I am getting close.
"MO: Layered" opens today in NYC! I am so excited to be included with this wonderful group of artists....if you are in the city, please check it out.
So excited to be included in a group show next month in Manhattan! I was lucky enough to meet Cami Ledy in Miami, and I am privileged to have a chance to work with her. If you are in Manhattan, please check "M.O. Layered" out!
I had a pony named "Hot Shot" that was nearly the same color. Then I graduated to a spiteful Appaloosa, and finally to a Quarter horse. My mom now has a mother/daughter donkey duo that I have yet to meet. They just have the greatest ears and kindest eyes.
