I noticed some things that landed in a way I liked this afternoon so I took a picture. The little box is a diorama I made a few years ago, I’m working on some new dioramas now.
fleamarket 3/08/09
Acquired this weekend at the park slope flea market:
All of it dug up, washed up and fished out at plum beach brooklyn. Good stuff. Happy day light savings time.
sailboat #5
I’ve just added this sailboat and lots of other things to my shop.
fancy tailfeathers
Being made from bits of an antique dress and bodice.
And A new owl – pecksniff – a character of dubious integrity.

paint box 2/09/09
roaring fire
I made this painting a little while ago for Partners & Spade.
You can see it installed in the mantle in the NY Times today or in person at 40 Great Jones Street in New York.
mr. guppy
A new owl – mr. guppy.
He’s made from an antique flour sack and dress makers scraps from the early 1900’s among other things.
He also has some 19th century thread sewn into his ears.
The threads are courtesy of stephen szczcepanek and I love them. I’m not sure what circumstance he finds them in but they absoutley belong in owl ears and probably some other places too.
bat
strolling spider
A little spider, out for a stroll among the mushrooms.
Away she goes, showing off her fancy posterior.
happy new year!
A beautiful and wonderfully expressive, melancholy little bear, will, a christmas gift handmade by my sister becky (note on the picture- taken using the handiest little tripod ever – a gift from my sister Catherine).
And a couple new owls in progress.
new in the shop
I finished the owl in the post below – rodrigo is in the shop now as well as a few more birds and a paper mache sailboat.
