The Artist Surveys Her Work

Coco is checking out “cloud” placement in her work Plush Deconstruction: Synthetic Clouds of Existent and Metaphysical Manifestation.

She seems fairly content with her work. I’m going to have to vacuum before Heather returns from New York…

    I love how she’s looking at that fluff like she’s just daring it to try anything. She can totally kick it’s ass.

    ha! The distortion betrays your true feelings on the matter!

    Excellent color saturation too. is that the camera/lens at work or did you enhance it some?

    That should be “its” ass. Duh.

    There is nothing my puppies enjoy more than pulling all the stuffing out of a new toy and then walking away from its shrunken carcass thinking, “I RULE!”

    Great colors in the photo, Jon!

    I’m completely in love with the title you gave this picture…isn’t it amazing how words can change our perceptions? I think Coco has a fine career ahead of her as a performance artist….but I would definitely vacuum before Heather returns. Besides, it’s the fleeting-ness of the performance that will make the documentation so valuable.

    Ah, love the expression on her face….like she’s just waiting for the stuffing to attack back.

    We had a dog like that, the only toy we found she could not destroy was the Kong. Would fill with yogurt and freeze it and keep her busy for hours. Or that was the intent. Usually took her a lot less time to slurp out all the yogurt or peanut butter. incredibly smart though. Taught her to bring in the newspaper and she did it every day until the day she died. She loved having a “job” to do every day and we loved not having to go outside on cold snowy days to get the paper.

    I know she’s an artist, but I hope she’s planning to write a book as well, because that is an author photo if I’ve ever seen one.

    I’ve been witness to that sight before. Brand new toys, destroyed in minutes. Coco looks so proud of herself. :)
