Updated the puppet gallery with some images of a shadow puppet I’ve just put together (but is still unfinished). I’m playing with the intention of maybe actually having it in a show this Saturday. Challenges are fun.
(11-15-03: Show performed. Left the audience wanting more and learned quite a few things about technique. Good experience.)
Thus far the only glitch in the proceedings was one of my pieces breaking. The gallery has two resident cats who are very friendly… and apparently much friskier than mine is. One of the pieces on display ended up cracked after being mistaken for a toy.
I’m not angry, after all things happen and this particular bit of damage isn’t irreversible, but it has made me think about possible future predicaments. When I signed up with the American Craft Council one of the benefits mentioned was insurance for objects on display. I did not sign up for it so it does me little good now but as I continue to do this I think I will have to give it more thought… particularly if art critics continue to come with four legs.
