KT Goodlove # 127

"prisoner zero has escaped"

This is block #127 in the Kettle and Took collaboration series KTGoodlove for Art-o-mat®.

KT Goodlove # 126

Kettle and I made a number of KT Goodlove collages for the Art-o-mat® Minneapolis Regional Swap Meet (back in April).
A number of those were not sold or traded but were included in the last batch of KT Goodlove blocks that I shipped to Artists in Cellophane.

We had already started on our third edition of KT Goodlove (starting with block #101) and those were also in that last batch that was shipped to AIC earlier this month (or was it at the end of April I shipped them? I don't remember anymore.)

Which brings us to these blocks...

I now have these 25 blocks of Kettley goodness to work on ... and then I will send them to AIC, too. Normally editions/batches are sent in 50 at a time, but these 25 got out of sync because of the Swap Meet. So this set is technically the 2nd part of edition #3 of KT Goodlove (which will be 101-150).

You can find blocks 101-125 in older posts in this blog.

Whew.

And for anyone new to this blog, Kettle and I collaborate on this mixed media series for Art-o-mat® called "KT Goodlove". Kettle paints his characters on the blocks, then ships them back to me. I add my collage bits, wrap 'em in cellophane and ship them to Artists in Cellophane (Art-o-mat "HQ") for distribution to machines across the country.

#7 of 7 and done with this batch!

Whew! Another 50 Animal People collages completed for Art-o-mat®.

That's tissue paper from the Betsey Johnson store in the background.

"I've been running all my life, sir."

another fifty done!

"we are stardust" "we are golden"

These are the last seven collages for my Animal People series for Art-o-mat® -- in this current batch of fifty, that is!

Now I just need to label all of the, wrap them in acetate ("cellophane"), package them up and ship them out to Artists in Cellophane.

YAY!

"I've changed my ways."

As long as I have 50 collages to send in, it really doesn't matter what number they are in this blog...why am I obsessing about this?

"29" (or so)

"I'm not too keen on thinking about tomorrow"

28 (which is actually 38 in the total for the 50-count)

Kitten girl and toys.

(See...my count is messed up. I think this is actually 38 0f 50 but the scanner number is at 28 because I am using 10 "leftover" collages from the MN Swap Meet...doesn't really mean anything -- except for my own counting purposes...LOL.)

27

Cat kid and his frog.

26 (for 50 total)

"Then the guy comes and says "72.50" and you're like "What?!"

This is another collage that spills over the edges of the block.

This is also another collage I really, really, really, REALLY like.

"In 2 hours I have a deadline."

"Why were you so mean to Frodo?"

I got that line from Brett Erlich host of Viral Video Film School (and co-host of Rotten Tomatoes) on Current TV.

I don't remember why it cracked me up so much at the time -- most likely it was just his delivery -- he was so seemingly sincere -- but I thought it was really funny. And this dog seems to sincerely want to know, too.

"plus a free spa treatment"

Yes...I watch tv late at night.

One other thing: every time I have ever held a "domesticated" ferret, they have bitten me. WTF? I like ferrets. Okay, it feels very strange to hold one...they are floppier than I am expecting. I don't know why I expect it to feel like holding a cat...ferrets are much longer.

This deer girl continues over the edge of the block. I figured she needed to.

"oh - that's much better"

"excuse me...I'll be back soon"

Man I hate squirrels...they eat my house, they invade my attic areas, they move my flower bulbs and plant them in places I'd just as well rather not have a yellow tulip thank you very much...it is never ending.
