Marley the Ghost.....
Do any of the artists out there hold onto a special piece you've created? Is there just one that you can't bear to part with? Marley was mine....I have always had a soft spot for ghosts at Halloween and then there is the "Christmas Carol" at Christmas, soooo to capture my fondness of my two favorite times of the year I made Marley. The pattern is sold on my website: www.softinthehead.com but I was never able to part with the model for that pattern.
Marley sits in my Halloween Corner inside one of the vintage built-in drawers I have on the wall of this old country store we live in. It's kind of a place of honor for him.
There is no rhyme or reason why this particular guy called my name but he did and every time I look at
him I have no regrets in keeping him for myself. There have been many times I've gotten excited upon the completion of a character and thought to myself "wow" should I keep it...but they just didn't touch me the way this Ol' primitive ghost has. Maybe the "Art Gods" were giving me something they thought I needed, a piece of my artsy soul to hold on to. If that be the reason then I thank them!
Marley is always there to make me smile on those days where a smile seems lost and difficult to find. I will look at this Ol' ghost and he reminds me just how fortunate I am to have a job I love and one that keeps my young and excited about tomorrow!

Family......
The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck
