What to do with all of these eggs? Overflowing eggs! Make art!
Who says that is has to be Easter to decorate these? Sometimes they are different shapes and sizes, so some of the smaller ones I have saved and made ornaments out of. I hollowed them out and then painted them white and drew designs on them. It would be so wonderful if eggs would just appear this way right from the chicken.

I lined the hood with some soft faux fur which I found at the best fabric store I have ever been to in my life, dressew.

My halloween costume.
This haloween, I wished to become a cross-breed reptilian winged and clawed alien. I used some stretch snakeskin for the legs. The fur for the fur vest was found at a house along the road side and was bought with 50 pennies.  The rest is space-age metallics. There are finger extensions for the finger-claws. The zip up face-hood-hat allows one to prance around unrecognizable with their alien super powers.

The blackest of nights
Was illuminated by
Splatters and footprints

Between the handprints
we found
Abandonded television sets
A free rocking horse

Upon the return
Tiptoeing up the stairs we
Left green doorknobs and bathtubs
Behind us

Suddenly realizing that
We didn't read the labels
About the paint contents
And were left green.

The idea was to portray the varying and conflicting ideas of all the different brains, minds, and lenses through which the world is seen, all occuring at once. I also used newspaper strips and a piece of lace. I thought it a good idea to post photos before it gets ripped and falls to pieces.
