Sweetest Little Things

Sackville is fortunate enough to have a couple of awesome and free galleries. every february 14th they have a stupendous fundraiser, replete with a silent auction.
here's the things i've donated to my favorite cause.

2010 - spin and grin - old camera lens motor fixed to a set of wiggly teeth made from dead lighters set into an old drink coaster that i fashioned little legs for... and a touch of red vinyl scraps for seasonal decor... push the button and watch 'em spin.

2009 and 2008 respectively.

in 2007, i happened to make two works for the auction. the baby foot was my first of many coaster-mounted tattoo'd limbs. i also learned not to put magnets near motors that year, as the smoochers love soon fizzled out. sorry jim.

in 2006 i made my first set of wiggly teeth... they made me laugh so much i had to put them on a stage... and make audience controlled lighting.

and finally 2005 marked my first miniature, and my first submission to the auction. i still have this one, as my darling husband outbid everyone because he thought i should keep it.
