The Gryphon

Here, in the autumnal woods of yesterday, lurks the legendary Gryphon. He spreads his fantastic, fake-fur wings and slyly looks our way. Those wings almost drove me to despair. I was out in the studio for a week. The head piece went relatively OK--involving my own version of paper mache, sewing, painting (eyes) and gluing. But the architecture of the wings proved daunting. Fortunately my friend Chris came up to visit and assist, thereby avoiding being a witness to a case of art madness....


Here is the Gryphon hanging from my ceiling in NYC, laughing all the way...




...and here is the Gryphon, the Stinkbug, and another glimpse of the Gutmonster (whose story has yet to be told):
