Hurrah!! The deadline for submitting to the latest SmashBear Publishing anthology, supporting women’s shelters, was January 20th 2021. I got my short story finished and in with 2 hours to spare.

I love creating cyanotypes with bicycle gears. It combines my love of art with my love of all things geary. I grew up riding bicycles, so gears are a part of the way I view the world.
With this particular creation, I also used rough brush strokes to give a feeling of motion with the blue cyanotype liquid.
Here are four different views of the art, which is about 10 inches square. Which orientation do you prefer?

My daughter-in-law Amanda adores the Bunger character in Bugsnax. I looked all over the web for a bunger plushie, and nobody was selling one. So I made one for her :).
Bob helped with the supplies and construction :).
The white “wrap” is felt. I had to use both stitchless fabric glue and super glue to hold it in place, and in addition I used white thread to sew the two sides closed so they would hold.
I used two different types of pipe cleaners for the fries. The yellow curly fries on the bottom are six thinner pipe cleaners. The two thicker ‘tusks’ are a yarn-style pipe cleaner in a deeper brown.
