Indeed.<BR/><BR/>That nude goat woman you saw is the stand in for scale.<BR/><BR/>For what she really looks like with her clothes on, here's a link to a newer sketch of the character; http://notesfromhalfland.blogspot.com/2007/11/some-frenzy.html<BR/><BR/>Justin?! That was funny!!! Yes, I did first dream up Halfland in 1993, 15 years ago now, so that leaves me two years to finish it--if I want the coolness of the stream being equal to 1 foot per year! Hee.<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for stopping here in your high speed life! Your encouragement is powerful!<BR/><BR/>And Rima, Thank you for taking those photos of your real life Halfland! Now I'll have the painter have a blanket and art supplies nearby. Perfect.<BR/><BR/>I feel a little funny about it though, the making the plein air painter to include inspiration from your life, because the painter has always been a chicken! literally a chicken! and that does NOT fit for you at all.<BR/><BR/>If I were to make a character of you, well, I think it would be more like Rana herself, the center of wisdom in the film.Shelley Noblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968333057020378002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-60436721128985301482008-05-09T08:06:00.000-07:002008-05-09T08:06:00.000-07:00Hello Shelley :) Thanks for your kind comments.. a...Hello Shelley :) Thanks for your kind comments.. and wow yes I'd be glad for my adventures with paint to be featured in your film!

If it's not right for HalfLand then it's done another way. The films I've seen designed that way have always maintained something very special about them. It's a tangible 'magic' the audience can feel. It's particularly admirable in an Independent because of the time and effort it adds. <BR/><BR/>That's alright Shelley, I laff'd out loud when I saw the cute leetle woolly legged interloper playing nudies next to the adjusted stream bed.

Here's the photo... http://notesfromhalfland.blogspot.com/2006/04/layers-of-meaning.html<BR/><BR/>So Ryan was right!<BR/><BR/>@Rich I laughed out loud when you you were surprised I hadn't stuffed mr. beetle with watch parts! HA! (didn't think of it!) That's what got me to realize I already had beetles in the film because I thought that I wouldn't like to kill for it. That just changes the whole tone, if you know what I mean and I think that you do...<BR/><BR/>The Knitting Beetles were purchased from insect suppliers that had already kilted them bugs.<BR/><BR/>PS to gl, Jeremiah is fine. I'm actually grateful the set was there! That would have been far worse damage to him without it! Shudder. <BR/><BR/>When he sleeps up there since then, I lay cushions under the area. :)Shelley Noblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968333057020378002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25158433.post-57985936912244600242008-05-07T18:01:00.000-07:002008-05-07T18:01:00.000-07:00Poor kitty indeed!
