Wanna show some more skin?

littlek, what is that thing on your arm? I know, it's a bug, but come on, let's hear the story--what it means, why is it significant to you, when did you get it, who did it for you, etc...

Oh I believe you have one.

But you said it was above your right - MY left boob.

MY left boob has been reserved for St. Cecelia and a pot pie.

You girls are quickish.

Montana, if you want, I know a guy who can turn your right nipple (my left) into a lovely brisket.

C'mon Shewolf, I showed you mine. Its only fair you show yours.

It's a muppet from the Dark Crystal, a Jim Henson/Gary kurtz/Frank Oz/David Odel and most of all Brian Froud production. Brian Froud is best known originaly for his fairy books and later for his "pressed" fairy books. He was the conceptual artist behind the movie's creatures. I love his work. I loved the movie. There is an asymmetrical symmetry to the stuff he did for the movie.

I loved the bug's big budha eyes, that he looked like a cross between insect, animal and even mineral. I loved the colors which, to me, represent my time in Santa Fe which is where I had it done. By an ex-boyfriend's sister.

Here's the original image (well, original from the book produced about the guy's work):


Here's a pressed fairy I had as an avatar for a while:
