Perennial lovers, Popeye the Sailor and Olive Oyl. I was trying for a half-real, half-cartoon look like the famous movie / bomb. Popeye is converted from the hunter Clayton in Disney's Tarzan, cut down at neck, waist, thighs, and calves to be shorter than Olive, with his chin deeply cleft. Olive is some skinny anime chick with her hair ground off and boot soles built up. The magical Jeep is a rabbit cut to stand up with fox arms and a skinny tail. The flowers are curled paper dipped in white glue on floral wire. The base is gouged from a Fisher Price set, then mounted on acrylic painted like water. A sign behind says "Sweethaven". The boat is named "Olives". Olive stands higher to heighten their size difference, and sticks her nose in the air to remain aloof. It's funny how Popeye is crazy about her when Olive often treats him like dirt. Such is love.  Please wait... |
