Don't be alarmed, it's just Bigfoot Barbie (she still needs some work on her hands and feet). No there is nothing wrong with me, I just realized that I have been taking my art way to seriously.
A friend of ours was having a birthday dinner and I was wondering what to get him. He is a big fan of comic books, Batman in particular. I can't afford to buy any collector edition comics, plus he probably has most of them, so I did the next best thing. I made a diorama. Batman defeats the Joker at Beer Pong. It was a close match. I paid attention to every detail. The cups had beer in them, there were water cups with fake water. There was even the winning ping pong ball in the Joker's last cup. Regretsy is rubbing off on me I think. That little creation set off a frenzy of ideas.
Big Foot Barbie of course and Heavy Metal Barbie pictured below. She still needs some work. More tattoos, some piercings, etc. I have a notebook with a bunch more top secret ideas that I will show once they are completed. It's a good outlet to make humourous (at least I think it's funny) crap. I think I may even open another Etsy store so my whacked out creations can be purchased and enjoyed by others. Don't worry, they will be affordable, and I'll post the link when it opens.
A clock update: I sold over 200 clocks between November and December, plus three melting clock accent tables. It was by far my best Christmas season yet. Hopefully I get into some art shows this summer and fall and continue the sales through the year!
