So I get asked the question "can you tie celery in a knot." So I say sure. Then I had to figure out how to do it.
This, and the water bottle image, are two ROUGH attempts in Photoshop at learning how to use the Puppet Warp filter in CS5. They are not 100% realistic, but it was good enough to get the concept across.
Puppet Warp is know my new friend.

I wanted to learn how to sew properly, and get some better skills. Oliver + S patterns are a fabulous way to do this, the patterns are extraordinarily easy to follow and the directions are precise. It’s like doing a little course in dressmaking.
Chinese Shadow Play ,which can also be called Chinese Shadow Puppet play, is one of the most ancient genre of drama in China. It came into being in the Han Dynasty (206B.C.-A.D.220) and has more than two thousand years' history.
Popular among the people of China, Chinese Shadow is a dramatic form which uses lantern to project shadows on the screen. The artistic effect of the play is produced through light, screen, music, singing, and puppet operation.
The puppets in the shadow play are made of transparent leather. Chinese shadow artists first carve out the lines of the design and then dye them in bright colors. These transparent leather puppets become very lively and beautiful under the lantern light.
Studying the details that make the puppet who he is, then forgetting perfection and just reaching for the "essence", becuse as the puppet said, "I have lots of essences!" (So much fun, I cold have continued with his other poses, but I had to move on to housework.)
The second annual Border Convergence, organized by the School of the Americas Watch, was held in Nogales, AZ, and Nogales, Sonora, on Nov. 10-12. A vigil was held Friday night outside the for-profit federal detention center near Eloy, AZ. On Saturday, there was a procession to "The Wall" in Nogales, with participants on both side of the barrier. Same on Sunday, with a mass of remembrance for the dead and a puppet show on the AZ side. See www.soaw.org/border/workshops-forums-2/ for more information about the Encuentro. Another will be held in Nogales again this fall.
Mike, Eric, and I started a puppet webcomic. None of can draw, but we have great stories. So we decided to use our hands in a different way :)

One of a kind Haunted Miniature created by artist Pat Benedict ...woopitydooart.
"The Mysterious Traveling Puppet show" with 26 hand sculpted puppets, Piroska the witch and her little witch broom helper. designed for a 1:12th in scale haunted dollhouse or Halloween collection.
I got so engrossed in making this puppet, I forgot to take in-progress photos. To conserve materials, the body was made from scrap foam core and styrofoam with a couple 1 X 2 for a spine. The dredlocks and strings are 99 Cent Store ropes. The hands were from some 99 Cent Store (Love that place) jump ropes. The top one has an eyebolt to keep it on the strings, while the lower hand is free to slap. The puppet was supposed to be a cactus, but came out looking more like a watermellon.
