Deer with rabbit (no, it is not Bambi!)

Someone, who shall remain namless but does paper mache, has been bugging me about this piece. Oh, Bambi and Thumper! Is that Bambi? Why are you doing a Bambi embroidery?
I believe it has been well documented that I like cute animals. I am not a Disney fan, however. This is just a cute deer with a cute rabbit, OK? Got it? Good.

I love these embroidered MRI images of her knees by Becky Stern. When life gives you MRIs, make art!

Turkey Vultures are kind of sweet despite their hideousness.
And this is funny!

Detroit resident, Vanita Mistry, started her own curbside recycling company, Detroit Greencycle. She goes out on her bike with an 8' trailer and collects recycling--before she goes to work at her day job. This is commitment. I am impressed with riding around town with that heavily loaded 8' trailer!

Anna-Wili Highfield is a Sydney artist making sculptures from paper and copper pipe. The birds are my favorites. Especially the ones in flight.

I like the phrenology heads and I like that this is all the negative emotions and urges.
