Description
The woman sat in the back of her tiny booth located away from the main crowds. She was shaping a block of clay into the beginnings of a face. Her art hung from the other two walls of the booth. A sign read, "Please do not bargain on the price. This is how I make my living." Another sign announced that her figures were not satanic or supernatural. They were just for fun.
There were no frills, no beads or feathers or costumes. Just a middle-aged woman in pants and shirt. She was friendly enough but never stopped working while we talked. She signed her work but I'll be darned if I can read it.
I am a person who appreciates art that is different. I also like art that is odd. So now I have a household guardian hanging near the door to protect my hovel.

That is just fabulous! I love the story. She was very straight forward and I love her wonderfully "odd" piece of work. "Odd" pieces seem to be the coolest to me. This one has a wonderfully wicked smile. Wonderful capture and continue to enjoy it!

Your "guard" has something from a Alien (eyes), Voodoo (nose - chicken claw) and devil (horns). At the same time however a smile from ear to ear. Or… a Schoko Cornflakes with face. The fantasy flies. A very interesting face. It may protect you.

Fabulous! I think I should have found a soulmate in this woman! And I had an old friend, now dead, who looked SO much like this I can't now imagine why I went out with him. Mmm, on second thoughts maybe it was the Triumph Tourer with the dickie seat.
