little ornamental gourd quilt! I started this last fall by dyeing and then bleaching out the shapes, but finally quilted it last night and added some satin stitch details. putting this one up for sale, could be used like a doily or a table runner under a centerpiece or I can add a hanging loop for wall mounting. hand painting and sewn with my free motion foot
$36 plus shipping, US shipping only. It’s approximately 18x14 inches :) message me if interested!

Fun JTTW Text Reference for Artists
I've written at length about Sun Wukong's golden headband (here, here, here, and here). Anyone who has read the novel will know that it is used to rein in Monkey's unruly behavior through the application of pain. Such events have been portrayed by artists like Chen Huiguan in his Newly Illustrated and Complete Journey to the West (Chen Huiguan Xinhui Quanben Xiyouji, 陈惠冠新绘全本西游记, 2001) and Tianwaitang in his piece Tripitaka's Curse (2010).

But I've never seen someone depict the instance with the greatest potential for an everlasting visual impact. In chapter 27, Tripitaka angrily recites the tightening spell 20 times to punish Monkey for killing what he thought was an innocent woman (it wasn't). This causes our hero's head to deform like a cartoon character!
The sight so frightened the Tang Monk that he fell from his horse. Lying on the road, he did not speak another word except to recite the Tight-Fillet Spell back and forth exactly twenty times. Alas, poor Pilgrim's head was reduced to an hourglass-shaped gourd! As the pain was truly unbearable, he had to roll up to the Tang Monk and plead, "Master, please don't recite anymore. Say what you have to say" (Wu & Yu, 2012, vol. 2, p. 23) 唐僧一見,驚下馬來,睡在路傍,更無二話,只是把緊箍兒咒顛倒足足念了二十遍。可憐把個行者頭勒得似個亞腰兒葫蘆,十分疼痛難忍,滾將來哀告道:「師父莫念了,有甚話說了罷。」
The original Chinese lists the "double-waisted" calabash gourd (yayao'er hulu, 亞腰兒葫蘆). I hope this gives artists an idea of what Wukong's head would look like.
Tumblr media
I've previously noted how the novel describes Sun Wukong as an actual monkey, and it's because of this that the headband would likely rest on his eye orbits. I imagine his head being squeezed into the shape of a calabash gourd would make his eyes comically (or grotesquely) bulge, too.

[ID: Artwork featuring characters from Dead End: Paranormal Park. The first drawing is digital, with Norma Khan and Barney Guttman drawn from the bust up and Courtney, Pugsley and Gourd drawn fullbody. Barney is holding Pugsley while trying to toss off Courtney, who is perched on his shoulder and grinning. Norma is shielding her head with a book, looking up in wonder at a green specter eminating from Pugsley's eyes, as Gourd also balances on the book. The 2nd image is traditionally drawn, featuring a fullbody of Courtney as she poses and reveals a toothy smile. Below her is Zagan, drawn from the bust up as she poses dramatically with her left arm outstretched. End ID]
Some recent Dead End art I made, as a homage to one of my favorite shows of all time :]

Spring! We tried making peach blossom tea after pruning the tree, but it tasted gross (not sure why)
We've also gotten some really cool ombre eggs from our Cayuga ducks!
Soon there will be gourd basket pictures. We grew big African drum gourds last year and after 6ish months they're finally ready to be cleaned and cut open. Some will be drums, others baskets.
