Lace Jelly Fish ...Would you like a tutorial?


I made these litte snippets for a really lovely project that is being made by a very creative person that I discovered because she left me a comment. I think I failed to reach out to her earlier, but from the moment i followed her profile to her beautiful blog...I not only was fascinated by her project, I actually wanted to be her.

Shelley Noble is making a movie. A beautiful looking, intensely rich picture poem and it is going to move. Like it is alive. It's called Halfland and and it has captured my imagination entirely.

Happily, Shelley was looking for contributors for her underwater scene.. So in a very small way I did get to play at being her. The detailed puppeteer without strings.

I'll be mailing these to her as soon as I get back from careening across states with my wild teenage artist. We will be leaving guerrilla art souvenirs and sampling as many kinds of pies as we can find. Documenting our progress in polaroid and fisheye lomo along the way.


But should these be a tutorial? Does everyone need some fancy tiny jelly fish and a few less doilies?

  7. ACK! Bitter Betty!? But but I want to be YOU!!! I can't do all the incredible things you do and all with the patented, un-duplicatable Bitter Betty panache!

    I LOVE THE LACE JELLY FISH SO MUCH!~! They are perfect! I thank you with all my heart. They will look amazing floating along with another type of lace jelly that an artist in Italy (!) also made for the undersea scene! Isn't that fantastic?! I'll have a school of lacey fantastics drifting through!

    Your grateful eFriend, Shelley
