"Buddy" - the budding-off mutant bear rug has lived in my loft for nearly five years now. I made him out of taxidermy foam forms, glass eyes, plastic jaw sets, faux fur, and a twisted imagination. He has two heads and a plethora of eyes. (If you live in LA and would like Buddy to come live with you shoot me an email to inquire.) #jawcooper #buddy #fabricsculpture #vegan #fauxtaxidermy #giantfloorpillow

2014 was a great year for reading, here were some of my favorites! A special shoutout to "Helmland to the Himalayas" by David Wiseman (who also happens to be my cousin.)
