It worked! I wanted to try and post a photo in an article!

I created these feet back in 1978. This was one of only a couple of things I have created that ended up in a real museum in and art show in Tokyo.

That's so cool! I think this is an awesome creation, Moggy.

I have to wonder... are you just being humble? You say, "This was one of only a couple of things I have created that ended up in a real museum.." I've been doing art for nearly 40 years, and I do not have anything in any museum (I do have 2 pieces in permanant collections of universities that I attended). I think to have even one piece accepted by a museum would be sooo awesome! Congrats! ~Jim

Thanks James, this is not permanently in a museum, it was only in a temporary show for like a month (if I remember correctly)! I don't have anything that has ended up in a museum's permanent collection! I've had several things end up in temporary art shows, but nothing major.

Very interesting, Moggy. I'm sure many people were fascinated by this.

Even a temporary display in a museum is an honor! I'm proud of you. :D

(Barney, bleary eyed and flat tailed, emerges from his cave. He looks around and contemplates going back in. He sees something that confuses his addled pre coffee mind. He blinks several times, it's still there. He rubs his eyes, still there. he goes back in and reemerges with a bottle of Tinactin.)

Wonderful Piece!

Moggy, this is a lovely assemblage. I would like to have seen it on display to get the feel of it. Even in a web jpg its pretty poweful.

Boy, I sure have been missing a lot lately...with the holidays and all. I'm just now seeing this Moggy. I think it's super cool and if it's okay with you, I'd like to feature it in "arts-n-crafts". I'll go ahead and feature it and if for any reason you would rather I take it down, just let me know.

Wow Kyra, I'd be honored! My very first "feature!" Thank you for the honor!

Now this really gives you a choice when you are putting your best foot forward! Cool stuff! Very creative, fun and whimsical! I love it! And well done on putting a photo with an article... now all you need to do is find an article! ;-) LOL!

Thanks Michael, LOL.

I'm o.k. with just the photo and 1 sentence! Otherwise, someone would be picking apart my grammar and/or spelling mistakes. ;)

Wow, that's so neat!!!! And to have it on exibit as well, you have to be proud of that! I sure am! :)
Do you still do these? Just wondering as I know some people that make the garden stepping stones, different ones, with not clay, but I "think" the quick setting concrete and they come out really nice too, oh, and a mold! lol I've never tried them, I stick to soap :)
You're talented!
Hugs,
Marilyn

Thanks Marilyn, it was on exhibit, not anymore and it was a long time ago!

No I dont' work with clay anymore. I paint stepping stones, but I buy them already formed at the garden supply store, they're cheap and I can get them in whatever shape I want, round or square etc. Your soap is nice! I bet it smells great too!

Thanks Terry! :)
