Transparent Sea Creature Collection

Posted in creatures, photography, sea with tags , , on May 8, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Oh ocean…you deep, exotic world of mystery…will you ever cease to amaze?

I wish there was more info listed about these findings. They seem clearly related to other known creatures, but who can ever get enough sea life variety?

This one looks like my intestines dressed up for a party (no really…I’ve seen my intestines on film twice in the past week).

Fellow children of the 80′s will agree that this one is “totally tubular.”

Here is another artist claiming “lowbrow” sculpture and artwork. Carl Turner AKA Biscuitboy rolls with Dr. Seuss as a major inspiration; and perhaps a tinge of Warner Brothers and Disney go into his wildlife sculptures. Some of the descriptions Turner gives for each of his creations are worth as much as the visual impact of the “trophies.”

In my mailbox today I found this link waiting for posting. With Dana’s limitations, I am left choosing the images from the link. Forgive me for not saying much more–I can’t compete with her wit and discerning eye. Only convey something of the wonderful finds Dana wishes to share.

**May I make a daily request for the Readership to send Good Thoughts, Positive Energy, Prayers, and any means of conveying support and healing to Dana. She is struggling with getting past impossible pain on an hourly basis. One can only hope doctors are able to find a way to rewire her nervous system. THANK YOU! The Proxy Blogger**

Today I’ll keep rolling with some more dolls, then switch things up for the weekend. Denise Bledsoe does some adorable creatures. When Dana showed these to me I was struck by the character and whim that comes across in her work.  I was able to narrow down the following selections to share:

Bafefit is located in Rome Italy. The works are reminiscent of traditional tattoo art in some ways. The images below speak to me for Valentine’s Day, with the twin images I view as shared souls.
