"SASHIMI"

Here's my new sculpt in full, being exhibited this whole month at The Hive Gallery in Los Angeles.  I'm also exhibiting Bully, The Cellar God and Amphibiana.   The show is really fantastic, tons of incredible sculptures from a whole bunch of artists, all of an offbeat, surrealistic bent.

This one is called "Sashimi".   It's based on old Japanese prints of cats wearing kimonos and acting like humans.   The creature I've sculpted is based on the idea of the Bakeneko, or "ghost cat"- it was believed that after a cat reaches a certain age its tail splits in two and it aquires human intelligence, and, often, malevolence.
