Work-in-progress: If you want an omelette...
"... You gotta break a few eggs."
Remember those plastic Easter eggs I found?
I'm finally getting back to them, and the piece for which I bought them in the first place. I plan to repaint them before I place them back into the carton. A toy bat will hang over the eggs.
Then I shall attempt the improbable: finish the whole piece by next week. Wish me luck!
Work-in-progress: fragile
Good thing Easter is coming up, because I've got eggs on the brain. Thinking about how to use faux eggs in the next few pieces I make.
These eggs are already coated with chalkboard paint. Some of them I'm going to repaint, but I may leave one or two as-is to write something on them.
They're for a piece I'll show in a two-person exhibit this fall. We're exploring the idea of fragile barriers or containers, and eggs embody some points I'd like to make. I'm also collecting eggs online.
Who knows: I might even look for eggs and candy to put in the kids' Easter baskets. Is it too early to have them get their own?
