This fall Vision Gallery is doing something a little different than usual. Instead of having a Dia de los Muertos exhibit, the subject will be "Things that go bump in the night".
So I thought I'd try my hand at something new to me: handbuilt sculpture.
When I was a child I was terrified of the critters under my bed. So this is my version of that feeling in the greenware stage. My buddy Steve made the big hand for me, and I did the little hand. I've also made a ceramic rag rug to put under the bed, and I'm thinking of putting googly eyes in the cracks under the bed. Does anyone have a source for googly eyes that light up? That would be even creepier, I think.
LOVE IT!!! I remember being very little and you calling out to Dad that there was a tiger in the room. I was pretty scared and buried my head in the covers. I remember that to this day!!!
ReplyDeleteThere were ALWAYS critters underneath my bed!
