Mixed Wizard
Two things snagging my mind from the weekend...the Navajo pin display on shrimpo jacket is a good sculpture~the Northwest Coast folk-core leather cap is high wizard gear...I'm almost there but the point to the hat is a sticking point (but it does have a salmon swimming through a portal split over two panels).

I only purchased red things from the bowl on sunday. 1950's-60's? canvas shooting vest with yellow waxed canvas pockets & safety red back...it has a game pouch that snaps on also...think of Blinky Palermo going with the a tweaked version of the Beuys fly fishing vest.
In house relative here.

So little done to the material to such perfect effect-smooth!

Box/Boats
Handmade family of wooden/painted boats with carry case from PCC this week. This is one of my favorite all time finds, so much love has gone into these things-the perfect balance of rudimentary craft/woodworking, practicality and personal project pride (PPP). The way everything is accommodated in the case-held in by canvas covered blocks and the way all the colors and construction of the boats compliment each other has been driving me a little nuts-something kinda Calder/Bauhaus/H.C Westerman about this thing.
