Description
Pigma Micron and ball point pen.She evolved from several concepts, I had originally wanted her insides spilling from tribal ink, but I just couldn't make it look right. Then I had the idea of turning her into a table-top dress form, which looks much better.

I just can't get over how much this piece speaks to me. I am starting to plan a set of tattoo sleeves based around sewing and I would love to be able to use this piece if you wouldn't mind to much. Just so lovely....

she is fantastic, and echoeing one of the above comments she reminds me of sally from nightmare b4 xmas. one of my favourite movies, this girl has more mystery and allure though, as if enticing someone to stitch there own part to her. in any case i love her!

i noticed last night at the movies that tim burton has a new movie in that vein, called 'corpse bride', with johnny depp and helena bonham carter as the voices. that should rock!

Wow. Disturbing and ambiguous. Is she sewing up her arm? Or unravelling it? Or is she trying to keep it from unravelling? I love the stitches.

Good question, ummmm...
Originally I was thinking she was sewing it up, but when I changed from the tribal 'stuffing' to the dress form I think now that maybe she's unraveling..? I'll leave it up to viewer interpretation, less work for me
Thanks so much!

When did you make this?! This is so bizarre--the last few weeks I've had a mixed media sculpture running around in my head with the same concept...

Bizarre we're on the same wavelength with this...Great minds think alike?!Cool!
My "foliate me" blew up in the kiln a while back, but my face is still intact, so I was thinking about using it in the piece...

Yes, yes, we do rock, don't we? 
...Glad to hear that lovely face of yours didn't have the fate of your poor sculpture

Heheh--no, just the rest of it "blowed up real good".
We rock! WOO!

I like the idea and works very nicely as a graphic....,keep on going!!!! I would have probably made it more morbid... but she definitely reminds me of Sally from Nightmare Before Xmas...one of the best flicks ever!!!!

I also saw Sally in her
only she's a little more intense

Well...... I like it how it is..I have a diff take on things..I just like how it works as a graphic..
but maybe more of an interesting expression.... a half stitched face.... a more realistic bone protruding...
but I like it!!!!

You sugar-coater, you.
Actually it really was drawn to be a t-shirt design, we have the Magic fashion convention in town here and a friend is exhibiting there, he asked me to do up some graphics.
Buuuut, I asked because I'd like to do more art and less graphic-y stuff.
...And I do value your opinion because..well, you don't suck.

WoW! Really cool! I like the bone sticking out. Although the idea is dark there is something really beautiful about it.
