random collection of recent images
One day I'll have time to make some new work and I can't put into words how much I'm looking forward to doing that. While some of my friends on the internet are getting into some dead serious shit with dolls who look like real people, my dolls seem to be becoming more and more doll-like at the same time as becoming increasingly dysfunctional.
As I wait for the time to come when my working life changes and I can return to working on my own stuff again sometime in 2008, sometimes I find a half hour here and there to make images. I didn't want November to come and go without putting anything into the diary so here are a few things.
The images with the pig came partly from the memory of a recurring nightmare I had as a young child of pigs being slaughtered in the basement of an art gallery. But they also came from a story in my mind about a sculpture which came to life while it was being carved.
Some people might remember that I used to make pictures of dolls doing pig-riding quite a lot and there's something about that in these as well. There are others in the series which need to be edited and no doubt this pig will be ridden by others in the future!
4 moody pictures of Estella...
and one of the Cardinal accompanied by a small stuffed rabbit...
As always, please click them all to see the large versions ^_^
