Espresso Family


Coffee Trio, originally uploaded by catbishop.

This is the Espresso family, named Venti, Grande and Tall. They are over-caffeinated and always on the go... Oh and the mother's an amputee but it doesn't slow her down a bit. I've decided to keep these together as a family unit and sell them as a group. They were created with old metal espresso pots, pool balls and vintage "paint by number" paints in glass jars. The heads are not attached so they can be posed. The dad measures 17" tall and the child is 11 1/2" They are signed and dated and 3 of a kind...

They are making me twitch for a caffeine fix. Out of curiosity (and maybe I should read back through your blog) but do you ever end up creating some of this so-called junk into functional art? Meaning its still usable but more pleasant to look at when its out on your counter. just curious...

I agree with Jenn - those legs are terrific!
