October - cider donuts and heaps of mini candy bars, pumpkin flavored everything, and creepy things, like spider webs and witches decorating windows and lawns are everywhere more apparent as the month progresses.
Artworks in Trenton has a show opening on October 18th called Dark Fairy Tales, followed by the Monster's Ball, on the 25th, a costume party at the art center.
Accepted into the show
was my sculpture,
Rapunzel's House.
If you have a phobia about abundant blonde tresses, then this may frighten you. If not, then it is simply an homage to the Grimm Brothers' tale of a young girl, imprisoned in solitary, and though the intention is, I think, to safeguard her chastity, she is discovered by a wandering prince, who is not frightened by yards of hair.
And apparently Rapunzel is unfazed by the weight of a full grown man pulling on her hair and actually climbing it. She is feeling the call of the wild, shall we say.
Also there is a scary witch in the story. By the way, where is that witch? Preparing to eat young children perhaps?
