Show And Tell



Kelli at There Is No Place Like Home is hosting a Show And Tell Friday. If you would like to join in the fun, please visit Kelli's blog and leave a link to your post.

I present to you all my Show and Tell for this Friday:



No, this is NOT an artifact from some ancient burial site. It is a self portrait head sculpture I made in one of my college art classes. Judging by that hairdo I'm guessing I made this sometime during the late 70's or early 80's. Looks like I never did get around to finishing the mouth. I remember after the class completed this assignment, the teacher turned off the lights in the room and we sketched our self portraits by candlelight. And I must admit, my head definitely looked better in that dim lighting!
I kind of have that same blank stare on my face right now as I have spent a lot of time online today unsuccessfully trying to get tickets to Oprah's NYC show. So I guess "my head" and I will be watching that episode from the comfort of our living room.

Thank you for looking at my Show and Tell and thank you Kelli for hosting.

i like your self portrait sculpture. do you keep it out somewhere? i would. well, i would if it looked like yours. but i'm sure if i tried to sculpture something to look like me... well, let's just say it wouldn't be pretty.


thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.

That is so much better than the one I did of my dad in pottery class! Pottery was my only C in high school! Yikes!

I love that "your head" keeps you company! ;)

Thanks for your kind comments about my head. I keep it on a bookshelf in my extra bedroom-don't want to frighten anyone!
