tiki 3
or 3 tikis-
It is really hard to get a good picture of something red. I thought it was me, but I did a google search for a solution, and it’s not just me. Everything in the photo is perfect except the red thing, which is over-exposed and kind of glowy. Weird. So, I’ve got a bunch of slightly off photos to show.
Here is a work in progress shot- flat man!
You can see the puffiness from the quilt batting. Here is a back view-
I thought this one was was good, in terms of color-
and some details-
side view for the sexy tiki profile-
I might try taking more photos tomorrow, but I’m not holding out any hope. The dark red/purples are especially bad… geesh! I have a Canon 610, if anyone wants to give me any advise.
That is all the tikis for now. I’m thinking about curlers… and bathrobes… hmmm.

I’m loving these Tikis! I think the teal one if my favorite. I love the way your mind works – moving from one thing to the next – I also like the way you work in series. It really helps works the kinks out.

I love these Tikis. The blue one is my favorite so far, but gosh, it’s so hard to choose one. Once I start looking at the details of one, I find the other has some detail that’s also great.
Yeah, the red problem… it does seem like the hardest to photograph are the blue-reds, too. Oh well, it just reminds us that things are better in person.

[...] I’d been thinking about ladies in curlers for a while. I even mentioned it at the end of this post. I pulled out my grandma/big lady design and got to work, cutting out the main body pieces, looking at photos tagged “housecoat” and “curlers” on Flickr. btw- Who ever knew there are curler fetishists?! The things I learn everyday! [...]
