It's happening again. Lol Judge Karen πŸ–ΌπŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸŽ¨

Mixed media is my category, okay. Yeah, I'll do that. I never bothered to call it that back in the early days. I just did it, for 35 years now.

These creatures are being fabricated once again to tell a little story...Freaky Fraidy Cat, Funky Chicken, Busy Bee & Low Rider Kitty. I'm cooking up the Colour Stories now in my head, in my mind's eye. I imagine a whole room based on that piece, from walls to furniture, painted of course. Lol. Prep is crucial...cutting the creatures out on my scroll saw like I did back in 1989, the very first time. Preparing the vintage frames properly. Background panels cut & primed. Then? Here I go! 🚦😊

I'm Judging the Fine Art at the Fair again!
Is this fine art? I think it's pretty fine, but I may be biased. I was told a long time ago in a gallery where I was showing, 'You straddle the fence between Fine Art & Craft.' Hmmm. Okay, urban folk artistΓ©? But a fine one? I've always been hard to put in a box. Don't want to stay too long in there. Just wait till I start coloring all this in!
Whooooo Hoooo!!!
I can't wait!

Ope - we almost closed the day out without recognizing NATIONAL CORN DAY!! (Brought to our attention by none other than sweet Rico at Cincinnati Zoo going to town on a cob - see stories for epic cuteness, volume up)

In honor of this special day, please enjoy Charley’s 1976 painting β€œCornprone” (acrylic on canvas), available as a limited edition serigraph.

β€œA raccoon can eat his weight in roastin’ ears and the more he eats the more he weighs, and the more he weighs…well you see what I mean. Watch for him on those warm summer nights when the kernel swells the husk and the gardener dreams of feasts forthcoming from his backyard cornucopiaβ€”the masked marauder munching by moon-light, raccoon on the cob. Come morning, hear the gardener mutter, Nothin’ left but th’ fodder. But, aw shucks, ain’t he a cute little fritter?”
