Our New Friend
We got a new friend the other day! We named him Frank. After posting maybe progress pics on our latest Halloween DIY project, a friend messaged me to say that she had a nice “scary head” to bring us. I was ecstatic! So she came by the Temple on Sunday and brought it to me. He is simply gorgeous! Would you like to see?
Isn’t he beautiful? My friend is an artist and hand made Frank many years ago. He had been sitting quietly on a shelf for many years and she felt he needed a new home. When she created him, it was from a place of great anger and so his real name is “Roots of Anger”. I have no side shots but he has a root base that is pretty amazing. I wanted to give him a new name with his new home and I contemplated a long time. Thinking about how he was created really helped. For many years I was angry at my Uncle Frank. I no longer call him Uncle but he was an uncle by marriage. It’s a long story but in short we were very close until some shit went down and I was shoved into the middle. Or at least I felt that I was. So for many years I was angry at him. I am no longer angry with him, I pity him to be painfully honest. But when this great piece of art came to my home, Frank was the most perfect name for him.
