Robo-Dog Encounter
Sep 30th
This is too funny! A real dog doesn’t know what to make of the robot dog that it meets at Tompkins Square Park in NYC.
You can make your own Robogurumi robot dog at a workshop with the Ossu! Shugeibu crafting club at gallery hanahou on October 17th. (It’s just $29.99, including materials!) Email info@galleryhanahou.com to sign up!
Big Mouth O’ Fluff
Sep 29th
Update: I can’t believe it, but someone pretty much guessed spot-on in the comments! It’s going to be a factory with tiny stuff coming out on a conveyor belt.
Bet you can’t guess what this guy is going to be! (No really—I’m pretty certain you’ll never guess. But you can try anyway!)
It’s something I’m making for the upcoming Luv-able and Hug-able plush show at gallery hanahou. I’ll reveal more as it comes along!
COLOURlovers
Sep 28th
I just discovered COLOURlovers, an online community/blog/resource for color inspiration—very cool! A contributor to the site recently blogged about the colors used in some of my toy designs.
I love the way the people on COLOURlovers obsessively create color palates from different sources. Here is the distilled version made from the colors in my Giant Mushrooms Attack the City knitted sculpture.
It looks so planned out when it’s shown like this! Gives me inspiration to put just a little more thought into my color choices.
