Tumor Baby

The last sculpture I feel like showing (there are a few others, but they're just some shapes I threw together out of scraps), this one has eyes I had to cut from a dollar store plush toy, as I actually couldn't find a single store selling doll eyes themselves (neither Joann's nor Michael's! I could have sworn they always did!)

I think of this as a tumor which grew around a baby and assumed its personality. I considered sticking worms in the baby's eye sockets, but the ones I wanted (realistic fishing lure worms) were $5 and I really can't spare another dime. I've spent easily over 100 to make all these things, and hoping to at least break even when the gallery is over. In addition to my sculptures they'll be hanging up 15 of my old Mortasheen drawings, priced at $50 each. I don't have to sell much to make up for materials.

Whatever I don't sell at the gallery will be going up in a new etsy store, and I plan to continue making monster sculptures now that I've discovered a method I can pull off.
