More photos of that third pumpkin…

… hopefully the last one for the year, for the sake of my fingertips. Note for next year: latex gloves.

Final set of photos were taken with the pumpkin seated on my hospital x-ray viewer.




Third pumpkin 2010

Preliminary shots of my third pumpkin. Will add better shots later, and may tweak the sculpture a little too.

First two pumpkins of 2010

Two pumpkins made for the Brighton branch of Dr. Sketchy‘s Hallowe’en show.

One of them features several firsts for me: typography, scrolls and flowers, all in the same design. I call the other lad Macaulay Pumpkin.






Get Well Soon

A friend was followed home by a tiny kitten, who is now called Oso. He’s 8 weeks old, but looks younger because he was small and sick (though he is getting a bit bigger now). He’s a skinny black thing, and his interests include cat food and wiping his mucus over people’s faces.

He’s too weak for the vet to be able to give him proper treatment yet. I have painted him a picture to encourage him to get better. I have perhaps gone overboard with his target weight, but it’s something for him to aim for.
