"Whats Inside Me"


This challenge came from Kat Campau's, Art Salad group at the Two Twelve Art Center. My challenge piece is now hanging at Kat's Hawaiian Getaway show at 212.
The main idea for this piece came from Megan C. accidently felting her wool socks. And, meeting with her mother for coffee every Wednesday, she gifted the socks to me, saying maybe you can do something with these... and Waa la, a face was born.
I have a passion for humorus art.

"What's Inside Me"



This up close pic shows , that her boobs are fortune cookies. I made her a felted heart, her arms and legs are felt strips with food labels attached. Her body is a clear plastic bag and her insides are a collage of labels.

Inspired by Kandinsky


I've been wanting to make this felt piece since this summer. When I saw a Kandinski print at the salvation army and bought it for two bucks. I thought that would look great in felt. This peice will be part of the show at My Favorite Cafe, in March and April.
