Lettuce be gone!

Obsession, sequins, paint, and felt... today I sent them off to be with their new show... Goodbye Lettuce!



Please never come back.

The King of Broadway...

You know that guy... the one who oversimplifies things and pretends to know how everything works and how to get ahead... we in the show biz meet them a lot.

Lettuce progress...

I've been working on a new (the fourth) lettuce jacket for a kid's show. This incarnation is made with a different fabric than the first and the client requested I make a collar that is more durable... Today I played with a new material called "Fuzz Form". It's a thermal plastic that begins like felt, when heated with a heat gun it solidifies and is sculpt-able... I'm so far very happy with the results and wanted to post a few in progress photos...

It starts out white.
I found the only way to paint it is with Design Master's Spray paint... but it looks pretty nice if I say so myself.
