Rabbit, banana flavour.

Here is one of my better attempts at photographing some of my pieces in a newly constructed lightbox(thanks, Kat!). The box is really a bit too small, though, as I found that none of the puppets actually fit inside. Lucky rabbits, however, no problemo. So I shall move on to bigger, more spacious lightbox building. Then LOOKOUT! Super awesome pictures will soon be on their way…
“Celebrate”

There’s a party happening somewhere, and Owl is invited. He’s brought a nice present, beautifully wrapped. It is also nice to see him making an effort by wearing a party hat. Some would feel undignified. Not Owl.
