Scrapbook for Longstreet Ln

This sculpture represents childhood memories.  Its funny she (on the surface) is a rather sexy mama, but really the worship of the goddess goes back so very far into human history, she is no different, her round hips, breasts, and belly mirror the natural landscape found on this amazing planet.  She is that purified, fertile place I found in Suffolk, Virginia at Grams house on long street lane.  Bugs, lots of bugs, leaves, pebbles, eggs, seeds, fish, and flowers were all a part of this scrapbook of experience.  I have painted these elements on her for she is a tribute to this time in my life. 
The peaceful countenance of a true muse. 

Sadness will subside

The sad girls were finished up today, their cases embellished with dried seed pods and beautiful owl butterfly wings.  A couple have surprises behind the figures not apparent at first glace, like a bird nest with eggs… thanks mister Jimmy Franco! 
The unicorn emblem has been painted on the girls as a symbol of strength and spiritual power and ferocity coupled with gentleness and mystery.  The unicorn will help them to find understanding and forgiveness.  No one should ever be told not to be sad, sadness is an emotion which should be felt, experienced, not swept away.  Feel sad, experience it, but do not continue to feel sad unduly forever, when the time of grieving comes to an end, forgive yourself or the other parties, or both, and allow understanding to come in, forgive everyone in your life for not being the way YOU wanted them to be, forgive, and move forward into the present moment.

Unicorn

They may have been gone for a while, but the unicorns are back.  They wish to be revealed as helpers of the human race, assisting the pure and keepers of good with their fierce courageousness.  One of the only mythological creatures which did not stem from basic human fears, the unicorn is back to assist the broken down, downtrodden souls who feel like giving up.  She will be the emblem on the next wave of miniature sculptures who are going through a hard time in their lives which once over, will assist them in more personal growth and one step closer to realization. 

Crazy cool splashed splatered Jack the dripper wannabe

You know I would never ask you to do something you didn't want to but...
You gotta see this up close, so just click the photo because she is pretty damn psycho up-close. 
She is spattery, painterly craziness with atomic yellow patches separated out from the rest of her splotches by black lines.
Just in case you dont want to click it, I have included a closeup look as well as the far away version.

harlequin jester abstract

Anytime you see the harlequin pattern on the girls, however abstracted it may be, it represents the Jester, the sidelined figure, the joke, the artist, me.
They are always a tribute to the artist and always a strong and gratuitous figure.
