Puppet Space

I saw this song performed live several years ago and had the opportunity to see these bunraku type puppets up close at a workshop.  Joe Bruce and his family are an amazing and talented bunch.  I've been wanting to make some trees like this ever since I first saw them and I am finally doing it this year!  I'll be posting soon my progress on this project.  My trees will be swamp trees and  will glow in black light.  I am only making two.  They are going to be so much fun! 

I love learning about the Muppets and how it all began.  I can't get enough.   I came across this video yesterday and I want to share it here. It's long but if you have time it's very interesting. I admire Frank Oz and his character.  Great guy!
