The clock lady's story...
It all began when I discovered my son-in-law
liked Salvador Dali. So I made him
a melting clock and now he's my ex son-in-law
and I want my clock back.
Is that wrong?
Is that wrong?
This is the clock that started it all.
Then the teapot joined the melting clock.
Second hand feathers? Why not?...
Colors started changing..
Shapes rearranging...
and things began exploding...
and then Galleries started selling
and that is how it was back then when it all began.
and that is how it was back then when it all began.
This is how I looked then.
I don't look like that anymore.
Don't rub it in, okay?
The following are just a few of the whimsical clocks I've made.
The colorful teapots and melting clocks (above) have been retired
and my most recent creations are below...way below.
