It was a spectacular day in brooklyn today. I wish I could have spent the whole day outside taking pictures. This is marymargret in Prospect Park.

I was hoping to start my “bird a day” program tomorrow but I’ve got an ad job that I think is going to screw that up.
Besides the gorgeous day today another nice bonus was finding pictures of fantastic paper mache from one of my favorite artists on Flickr here.
Things got so busy around Christmas I never got to photograph Johnson’s Christmas window so here’s a little bit of it now.

* If I owe you an email – sorry and I’m hoping to get entirely caught up over the weekend. *
* I’ll update my shop as soon as I’m caught up on wholesale orders. In the meantime, I’m going to start posting one bird a day next week. More details on that later.*
* Earth Angel Toys has a blog now.*
I’m making lots of new birds and I’m planning on a little shop update soon.

Some spiders in progress :

It looks like they’re having a little brawl, a spider melee.

Most of these things are going to lovely Cog and Pearl in Brooklyn.
I’ve been thinking of making some more realistic (or at least reality inspired) creatures, especially shore birds. These are my first : a baby Loggerhead Sea Turtle and a Lesser Yellowlegs.
