Shambala Voodoo Luck

Shambala is soon and Duggan and I are going to be performing very strange voodoo rituals and giving away voodoo fortunes.

Talking in tongues, wearing leather capes with glitter, multi-coloured, terrifying, silly, costumes.

Today I made the fortunes. Inside each tiny jar is a tiny fortune, some glitter and powdered paint.

Pour out the contents, blow a puff of colourful, glittery cloud, find out your fortune.

It’s going to be fun.

Here are some of the fortunes:

You are an able man.
You are a beautiful woman.
Do or do not. There is no try.
You’ll never be any good at gardening.
He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at.
The fortune you seek is in a different fortune.
Your days shall be long and your dreams fulfilled.
The nightlife is for you.

More ‘Shit Joke Book’ Illustrations

Getting some of these illustrations done, rather fun today in the sunshine. I’m illustrating some of the words in the jokes, usually the punchline. Things like ‘Breasts, bum fruit, his poo was on holiday, it is dead, eek, free and kiss a potato really hard.’ All are shit jokes made up by kids. All the words I am making using nicely sharpened pencils, coloured graphite and viscous watercolour paint.

Q. What do you call a snail with no shell?

A. It is dead.

Thoughts

Some old things

A comment on my artwork from 2008, which was good to see again

“Very charming! Your work seems so very honest and casual. It gives me feelings of positivity, optimism, light-hearted-ness (and such things) in yourself and others. Your art certainly makes me giggle. Your gallery seems lightly/subtley critic

And me, from 2006: “I HAVE NEVER CREATED A SERIOUS PIECE OF ART, AND I DON’T THINK I WANT TO. AND I DON’T THINK THAT THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT.”

Working in an office!

I guess I do work in an office, but it’s a non-stuffy one (apart from the lack of windows that is)

Animals with human mouths

A nice little Saturday project which has been both hilarious and addictive. I want to get good at this. Nice to play around on Photoshop. I think there is something special about the owl.

Email your animals and mouths to hello @ lucybarfoot.co.uk. I want to make more.

All made using a variety of mine and my sister’s mouths.

Quick and fun. Here’s a couple of mine:

Silly songs I made

Here are some old and new songs I made on Garageband. I truely believe that this is the best way to pass time, especially when with friends. MAKE A SONG! especially if that song included silly rapping. The rest of them, you can find on my SoundCloud. Possibly this is quite embarrassing, but bugger it!

What’s she going to look like with a chimney on her?

SILLIEST LYRICS EVER!

You got it on the side
A little one night thing
I’ve thought it over and this time I will forgive you
Well I’m not letting go
But don’t forget I know
You made your bed and she was in it
No no no

What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

Well I’m not blaming you
But she’s still hanging round
And she’s so crazy I’ll tell you now I just don’t trust her
She thinks she’s right on time
But I think she crossed the line
And I’m ready for the light
I’m ready if it’s fighting time

What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?
What’s she gonna look like with a chimney on her?

Vimeo silly videos

I’ve been using my Vimeo account, have uploaded some silly videos. It’s for silly videos only, mostly me and Lucy Duggan hard at work, me recording us on Photobooth, her not realising.
