Odd Moments

Sorry for the poor photo quality. At the time I didn't have a proper camera to take a picture of this. 
Using a cigar box painted a bright devil red, I cut a hole out of the lid for the plastic frame and glued glass to the frame. The background is map paper. A graphic of a head from an older medical book, a falling boy illustration from an old Reader's Digest Condensed book (keep your eyes peeled for these as they often contain some great graphic illustrations!) and some skulls rounded out the inside of this piece. I glued the Odd Moments pieces onto the glass using a light layer of silicone - the Odd Moments labels are actually vintage cigar label graphics. The devil was cut from a comic book. If you'll notice, the 3 dice read "666."
This piece's theme was a way to poke fun at superstitious beliefs about an imaginary enemy and its symbols.

Dial 212 for New York

SOLD

This piece's objects were placed inside a colorful cigar box. I used 2 colored dice, a New York Christmas ornament, 4 old fuses and a vintage telephone dial as the centerpiece. In the background is a vintage star map graphic. The two astronauts are actual vintage graphics as well. The heads came from a vintage medical book and were placed on the astronauts head to give them a more vintage look. The compass isn't vintage but I liked the way it is in the middle of the telephone dial. You can still place your finger inside a dial hole and dial just like the old days.
