Why hello there readers and fellow bloggers, long time no see. ^_^
Meet Mortimer! He’s an Explorer. He loves books. He is a Book Explorer! (It’s a bookmark, or is it?)
What I’m saying is that I created a classy eyeball person with ambition, and then made him into a delightfully weird laminated bookmark for you to enjoy, and quite possibly get creative with yourself. - As it turns out the average size of a standard bookmark is almost equal to a very tall 1:12 scale (dollhouse size) human, so while I was photographing Mortimer he wandered around the studio a bit.
If anyone wishes to bring a copy of Mortimer home and use him in weird photo ops, by all means please do. (and feel free to let me know what you’ve come up with!)
#mortimerbookexplorer Wouldn’t be a bad tag for your pics, just sayin’.
Ok, but how do you get a copy of Mortimer?
Well here’s the thing: Because this was a weird/random project, I printed and assembled these neat bookmarks in-house.
Depending on feedback, I can make many more runs of Mortimer and his friends to come, but for now there are only 12 Mortimers available.
3 ways to snag one for yourself;
1. Head on over to ART247 in Lockport NY. There are some for sale just outside of studio 233
2. My Etsy shop, under the *NEW* Misc. Fun! section.
3. Now that you’ve read this far - This post is actually a giveaway announcement! *gasp*
That’s right, I am giving one of the very first copies of Mortimer the Book Explorer away to one of my lucky Facebook followers!
To be entered, head on over to my Facebook page and hit the like button - You can find a post with the details there.
This is my first online giveaway ever and if it goes well I might just do it again, so share this post to make this giveaway happen and to get Mortimer out there exploring the books and world I would imagine he’d love to see! #bykylelefort #art #giveaway #bookmark #eyeballpeople #characters #dollhouseminiatures #artstudio #lockportny
