Art You Can Hug

Art You Can Hug is currently on display at Howley's in West Palm Beach and I was lucky enough to have some of my dolls and plushie birds included. Me and the girls headed to opening night to show our support and eat delicious bacon and mac n cheese treats! We had a great time. Four of my dolls are currently dangling over the adorable felt forest creatures made by Amanda Linton (the master mind behind the Howley's art shows as well as Stitch Rock and many many more!) and an adorable bunny drawing I didn't get the artists name of :(

There are also a pair of my Love Birds cozily nestled in a basket on a different wall.

I had to give special thanks to Amanda for all she does , as i mentioned before she does ALOT for the Palm Beach art scene . To give you an idea here are a few links

I don't know there are probably more projects she's into ! All I know is I've participated in many of her events and loved every one of them so I made Amanda a 'Me' doll and gave it to her at Howley's.

I had so much fun making her ! She seems very loved and even got a little shout out HERE on City Link's ArtMurmur blog. You may notice Amanda's 'Me' has pink & blue hair in one pic and red in another wellllll, I made Amanda's doll a few weeks before Art You Can Hug when her hair really was pink and blue then the week before I saw her she dyed her hair red ! With a little brainstorming help I improvised a red velcro hair piece, I am still shocked it came out so well ! All and all the Howley's night was fun especially with the company of some of my nearest and dearest .
