A sculpy creation I call Bad Mojo, done last year, using sculpy III, pins, hair, and acrylic paint. There is a small amount of cotton sticking out of one of his torn patches to make it seem as though he's stuffed. He's about 3 inches tall, pretty small but quite the conversational piece. He is a voodoo doll who is trying to kill himself because he doesn't want to be used to hurt people anymore. But by shooting himself in the head, he might accidentally kill the person he's trying stop hurting. We'll never find out, though, for he is eternally stuck in that tense and horrific premeditated position. This is the third (and best so far) Bad Mojo I've made. Sold the other two at the artwalk.Sunday, March 7, 2010
