Caf-fiend
"Caf-Fiend"
Marionette and Mixed Media
I made this for the "Who Is Jordan Deschene?" memorial show that was this past April at Paris In Plantsville...
Jordan was a huge Dr. Suess fan, and I found this marionette kit at a craft store,
So I bought it! Hahahaha! It was when Jordan was still my room-mate and we were going to wait for a bad weather winter day and get some booze and make goofy puppets. The winter before we got snowed in more than once, so we gathered up some things to do if it happened again, and the following winter wasn't as bad. After I moved to my new place I found the box... And soon after he passed away. When I was thinking of what to do for the show I remembered I had the kit, and I knew I had to work it in somehow
But first I started an illustration... But it wasn't coming out like I wanted...
And I saw this mug...
I had a set of them. Now I have two. Jordan would use them every day for his coffee (when I made coffee)... And I knew I had to use it somehow...
So I made the "Thingdingler"
Then made the mug look full of coffee with Sculpy, took a small canvas and painted it, then cut "Jordan" out of the illustration I abandoned and attached it all together.
It was going to be seen from all sides, so I had to cover the back of the canvas somehow... Google Eyes to the rescue!
Some pics of it all set up at the gallery...

Eric is based on my friend, Eric! He was the star of "Josh and Todd"... The real Eric, not the puppet.
And here's Eric and Christian

I'm an outsider here... In the land of Normal
Remember when people used to confront their problems in life, and face them head on?
And deal with them?
Remember when people would find solutions to our problems and issues and conflicts?
Yeah, me too... I still practice it the best I can in fact.
But for all those others who don't want to... It's a good thing modern medicine has "a pill for that"
Pull your pants up... And pull yourself together.
And I'll get off my soap box now.
And now totally unrelated and just for your viewing pleasure...
Nick eating a carrot!

WTF is "a case of the Mondays"????
What a good weekend...
Friday was a great birthday party for a great man...
Saturday I sat behind my computer writing the "Animal Behavior" movie, and we haven't even finished editing the show yet, hahahaha.... Filmed part of a short film... Then just hanging with an old friend... And a nite at home to myself,
And Sunday... Hung out with my man Nick and then a nice mellow Sunday nite on the porch with the cats.
And now it's Monday Morning... I don't have that "I Hate Monday" mentality. Monday is just like the rest of the days for me. A day to live. A day to be.
And the coffee I'm drinking out of my grandfather's mug and "Lovesexy" from Prince playing on my stereo are a great way to get it started...
