ya ya chou and the sweater vest
i love these gummybear sculptures by artist ya ya chou.
a gummybear chandelier!
i also like ya ya's new series of paintings, more of which can be seen here.
and the "animal consumed" series is pretty nice too.
i guess i'm an all over ya ya fan.
i think i like her work almost as much as jordan likes the sweater vest which is why i was excited to find this free pattern. (that was a lame tie in but i am excited to make him a vest!)
oy, i get gas just lookin' at that chandelier!

Gummy bears and chandeliers - have you been reading my MIND! Two things I've been thinking of (not together like this excellent artisit) but still it is uncanny. Stay tuned, if I get my act together and actually execute my bonne idees.
