First Friday Art Show at Go Ask Alice, Santa Cruz

 My show was a success! Thank you to my friends for all the help and to everyone who came out for a fun night! Shop local! This is an amazing store to explore. 

My beautiful models Christina Lacombe and Christie Hernandez.

God's Eyes

These are made from yarn and driftwood.  They are traditionally made by the Huichol Indians of Mexico.  This tribe makes them with spiritual intentions and purposes.  They are also made by Christians who identify with the symbol of the cross.

This is one of my early hat designs from a few years back. It is a gold Africa patch with a camo background on black. This kid was rockin it on his pogo stick. 

My little cuties with their lilac beanies.

 Beautiful Kerry at our booth!

 Franchesca photo bomb! She is wearing one of Kerry's beaded caps. She is also part of the Empress circle: her gorgeous jewelry brand is Empress Jewels.  https://www.facebook.com/Empress-Jewels-1217655548244520/

 My cotton crowns made with these amazing color tones that I found in Brazil.

Green Beans!

These hats are made with high quality camel wool, which I purchased from a non-profit organization working to save snow leopards in Asia.  The texture, color and smell of this yarn is unique. This is the link to the website: https://www.snowleopard.org/

Rainbows and Roses

Above are beanies in beautiful color combinations of turquoise, pink, brown, lime and seafoam.  Some of my favorite colors; they sing to my heart! Back row has sold out already; front row remains for sale as of today, Earth Day!

Above is a hanging art piece I made in Brazil from pieces of fireworks cartridges that I found on the beach and colored with oil pastel.  Recycled art! 

I dug up some unique yarn from my collection for these new beanies. They are made with vintage yarns, earthtones, pinks and fuzzy yarns. At right is a magenta beanie with vintage cotton from Greece.
