Super grateful, , put in some hard work. Beautiful, fun, bright, inspiring creation of Openminded. See a lot of fun creations by nerfect at Instagram

My assistant, Thelma and I are adding a larger base to the customized @fishinatutu figure for a bit more stability, and to set it in a bit of an environment. I’ve grown to enjoy crafting these little bits of scenery to set my sculptures in since doing it quite a bit at my show at @rotofugi . . #workinprogress #openminded #diyfigure #customfigure #arttoy #designertoy #sculpture

I have to clean up my workspace in order to take care of a couple small projects, which means I have to put aside what I’ve done with @fishinatutu ‘s Open Minded figure for a bit. Luckily, I had this nice box to put the small bits and pieces in. I found this box at the thrift store filled with various wooden shapes, which I sorted into my parts drawers. There’s something nice about seeing these parts in progress sorted in this box. . I’ve also included some reference photos I took, so I remember how the various branches are put together. They were kind of interesting as images on their own, so I’m sharing them with you.

The kindness of strangers puts wind under my wings. Thank you Donald Ross Scribe, Jason Brunson Dana Brunson, @ Blue Sky Sletch Stehen Wuesthoff
