Victor is up for auction!

 

cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300697211...

  

This is Victor! He's a Boar Monster. He likes to play in the mud and get dirty... but he's also into bubblebaths so it's all good.

 

This doll is completely handmade and sewn by hand. Cast resin/hand painted face, hooves, paws and ears. His tusks are hand sculpted with durable epoxy clay. Horse hair whiskers and mohawk with hand shaped/dyed wool dreadlocks. His necklace is made from a deer antler tine with mammoth bone beads and various stones and crystals. Stuffed with soft polyfill with some pellets in his rear so he sits properly. Faux fur body, glass eyes. Totally one of a kind.

 

Victor is 13" tall ( 33cm) tall from top of head to bottom of hoof.

 

These dolls take a really long time to make but I love them very much. They can be handled and cuddled but please treat them with some care and be aware they will not hold up to hard play. Not rated for young children!

 

I only make a new doll about once a week and no two will look the same. Each doll is very special and meant to bring joy to his or her new home!

The king of the tub

MUSK MALLOW

 

Hoverflies twirl stamens in supplicant hands

With intense concentration, like children

Sifting flour for baking scones,

The whisking anthers a thousand times

Reflected in bubblebath eyes.

The musk-smell rises, like butterflies

On an updraft. The flower beneath:

A vellum scroll.

 

The hoverflies return

To find anthers withered, and in their place

Are feathered stigmas, awaiting

Some sacrament. The flowers

Are in facets, a thousand to each eye.

Unfurled: the bloom beneath.

 

Children

Find the cheeses ready-plated,

Bundled, babybelled, for waiting mouths,

Tight cakes of mucilage

Ripe for tasting. The hoverflies’

Eyes - and their thousand tiny worlds –

Extinguished, and every petal

Wilted.

 

Source material: G. Clarke Nuttall and H. Essenhigh Corke, Wild Flowers as they Grow, Volume 1, 1912, pp. 62-64. There are three main stages to the life cycle of a musk-mallow flower. In the first, a pyramidal arrangement of stamens arises on a central column, as soon as the flower has opened itself by unrolling after the manner of a scroll. In the second, the anthers fall away to allow insects to perch on the stigmas, transferring pollen from their legs as they do so. After this, the flower withers, and the fruits are bundled on top of the calyx just as though they are being presented on a dinner plate. They are indeed edible, and particularly delectable to country children, who have called them “cheeses” for generations. The detail of the hoverfly rubbing the stamens together in a twirling fashion with its forelegs in order to extract the pollen for eating is based on personal observation. Poem by Giles Watson, 2009.

 

yes there is someone under all that foam

via Instagram ift.tt/1O7xWa5 Finished with one job with just enough hours to sleep before the next. Bath time was necessary, and apparently so were feline chaperones. #meow #freelance #thisismysaturday #caturday #bubblebath

Remember Soaky bubblebath? Made by Colgate Palmolive in the mid 60's. Bullwinkle was my favorite.

Yet again, the lovely combination of bubbles and skin...this time, with water!

I'm never sure whether to eat this or throw it in the tub, but then I remember it's from LUSH, and that means it's a foaming bubble bath brownie! YUMMY! Morning bubble baths are FUN, by the way. :)

The rest of my favourites from this session - for my mum and niece before I go away this weekend!

Bathtime will never be the same with this thing watching over me :-)

Gabriel Le Mar’s album Flashin' On features floating guitars that breathe to electronic beats and intoxicating future dub grooves. All songs riding on Gabriel's deeply emotive guitars, finding their deepness in melodies and create an atmospheric feel. Catchy calm soundscapes and songstructures are the elements of this pretty soulful new Le Mar work.

 

"Flashin’ On" simply sounds amazing: synths duck and cover with rippling facility and beauty, rhythm patterns spill out moire-like variations with all the colors of a gumball machine losing its loot, and the subsequent atmospheres are nothing less than warm analog bubblebaths. Best of all, Gabriel knows how to make his machines *rock*: “We R1” has a great, lumbering gait and rubbery bass line that makes the air literally molten around it. We can always use more of Le Mar’s praxis groove thang.

 

Everybody knows Gabriel Le Mar has been into dub electronica with his project Saafi Brothers since years and many inspiring albums made up their way to the musically likeminded listeners. Intense moments of collaborations can be found on this album, too. The beautifully chilled „Iced Wire“ created with Klangzeuger and the sexy pushing „Feel like we peak“ produced with Pascal Feos.

 

"Looking very much forward to this release since it is one of my most handmade music i did in comparison to my predominantly electronic music albums - it is a true hybrid and that is why i see them more as playful song structures rather than tracks."

Love that bottle. Nothing beats the cork.

My mom with the bubble bath I made for her. :)

I think I have a small obsession... although what I bought today doesn't really count because I bought them as gifts. At least that's what I'm telling myself :)

She just couldn't resit getting closer to the running water.
