i had an itch i had to scratch...

For those that might not have noticed, a lot of my work revolves around toys as the subject. In particular toys from my own childhood, so i was thinking with that theme in mind, what could i create in a few months for this show? figures? too hard. i wouldn't know where to start. i had the idea of paddle balls years ago and it never manifested into anything, but i had three months to figure it out and it seemed like a simple enough project to pull off and maybe have some kind of impact. little did i realize at the time that since the majority of actual art was finished months ahead of the show i really had the time to get lost in this project and by the show i had created over 80 pieces.
