Alphonse Insists

Our Alphonse (ever grateful for his rescue from a lonely bat-filled attic) wanted in on this blog.

He says he's particularly fond of this Zentangle that Maria and I published earlier, but we think he just wants to show off his new coat (and hands).



He likes to rest his new hands on an old plant stand that Maria painted and tangled.


Materials used:
  • Marble bust
  • Formal vintage jacket
  • Rick's grandfather's hat
  • Weighted acrylic bookend hands that we bought at Sandy Bartholomew's store. (She a CZT in Warner, New Hampshire.)
  • Gouache painted plant stand with pointed pen tangles

He looks like he's ready for a party :)

It truly brings joy to my heart to read your posts ... I especially like the use of things that you hold dear - like Ricks Grandfather's hat - and a great tangle to boot!

Great use for those hands! Now, if I only had a bust... ah, wait a minute...
