I am sorry to say I am quite familiar with these beings. They are very irate when they show up at picnics, especially if you have fried chicken

Is anyone else thinking, "Chi- chi- chi- chia!"

THey're supercute and quite poignant, but are those mossy things real plants or not?

This reminds me of a few things happening (at a less effective level) in my school's BFA department.

Thanks.

Totally loved that. Thanks grapefruitmoon. It's the kind of art that makes experiencing life different, like I'll see doorways and leges now as potential places for clumps of moss. Neat.
