- Shrunken Head Earrings -


I often find myself straddling a line between fine art, and fun art, but I am a details guy either way. I enjoy getting lost in a micro world - which is where these guys were born - so if they're a little kitschy, that's alright with me. They were also therapeutic.

 My affinity with shrunken heads goes way back to my first ever visit to California, and a Ripley's Believe it or Not museum. Rather than spooky, the real-life shrunken head in their window looked almost peaceful to me, just chillin', with a half smile on its face. They've been my buddies ever since.

Experimenting right now with neon-colored versions. We'll see how that turns out.
