Eat Your Veggies

My favorite this week
has to be my funny little artichoke head.

...
Aren't artichokes just the oddest veggies ever?
I love 'em though, prehistoric-cactus-looking things.
Leaf by leaf, dip 'em in butter and eat 'em up!

I felt a bit ambitious taking on the task of sculpting an artichoke head in cloth. She's 99% cotton batting, with Paperclay facial features and lots of paint. Click HERE if you wanna see more of her. I've been having fun experimenting with the sculptural possibilities of painted cotton batting. It's quite forgiving, and surprisingly easy to work with. I think I'll tackle a pineapple next! Not this week though. This week I'm preoccupied with Snow White and her 7 little friends.
