... just sayin'; "Hello". I recently got caught up in one of those Facebook challenges; 'post three pieces of art in five days'; with my SoNet track record - I barely did it. Actually it took me six days, as I was crushed with work and couldn't make the post, one day. So, sue me. I need to make a buck.
One of the contenders was "Hisself", a piece I'd done over a decade ago, when I did OOAK Artist Dolls, on the side. He's about 4 1/2" high, with his base, I liked working small. It was a challenge to make everything to scale. That market is pretty much non-existant these days, but I made a few dollars at it, back in the day. It's too bad the market is down, it was fun.
There's a better pic of him somewhere, there's some kind of wonky glare in his eye, and it soooo leans to red, but at the time I was trying to quickly fulfill a challenge, so this is the one at hand. I figured, since it is the Month of The Irish, well, actually we all know it's just a day; but when McDonald's rolls out their 'Shamrock Shakes' on the first of March, and as commercial and somewhat distasteful as that may seem; I say, hell, just roll with it. Let the Irish have a month, it's okay with me, they're in my DNA. It's said you can't fight city hall, or multi-billion dollar corporations. Unless, you don't buy their 'fake shake' - oh, you insurgent, you!
My last post was about the Amaryllis I'd received at Christmas... I'm putting a timeline together for that. I had a couple of inquiries about it. It turned out to be a pleasant surprise, but more later.
Until my next post, and in the spirit of The Irish, though "a wee bit early": "Happy St. Paddy's Day"!
