Kathie Olivas Sculpture
Spankystokes somehow got the scoop on this, and since the artist's website is rarely updated, I haven't been able to find out more information about the sculpture.
I've blogged about Kathie Olivas in the past (and how I'm a big fan). I own a limited print of hers and have been salivating over her designer toys, plotting ways to add them to my collection.
I don't think I'm going to be able to afford this new piece.
She has taken her Elizabeth figure and created a 3 foot fibreglass sculpture.
I can only imagine how wonderful it must look in person, with her perfect petticoat and tentacles.
Where do you put something like that? Not outside, else it gets stolen. You make room for it inside. Somewhere grand. I don't care if you have to throw out an armchair.
Of course, if you can afford this piece I imagine you have enough square feet to incorporate it into your living space without chucking furniture (or by simply buying new, more accommodating furniture).
Sigh.
... a great piece! What a wonderful little ghoul. Thanks for sharing!

That piece looks pretty awesome on the stairs. I can only imagine the cost. Yipes!

Submitted by Ghoul Friday on May 4, 2009 - 2:10pm.That is really awesome. I bought some of her Scavengers art toys in the past but whoah, this blows them away. I could only imagine the price but it would be awesome to display. I hope this doesn't mean she won't be making any more small (and affordable) art toys...you know going the Camille route.
If I hit the lotto, I'd definitely get this...and one for you too Ghoul Friday, since this is the 1st place I saw this sculpture at!
