Drawing inspiration from my toys and Pez collection, I set up a small "stage" to create scenes. In "Whispers", 3 Princess Leia Pez appear to be two woman talking about a third woman as she is just out of ear shot. In "Gossip" the conversation is taking a unpleasant turn as the two women confide what they think they know to a third person. Casting the Pez as characters in a play had the odd effect of giving each duplicate a unique look even though they are exact copies. Exploring human situations through inanimate objects facilitates the task of sharpening my observing and rendering skills. I started collecting Pez in 2004 to use on frames. I had a system of bidding on large lots on Ebay, only bidding up to a few cents per items that I wanted. It was always fun to get the large boxes with many mystery items, usually the photos showed a pile of Pez without an exact list of items. I concentrated on Star Wars Pez for a series of Star Wars characters to be framed in Pez.
