Subject: Re: puppet construction


Thanks !  You guys are making me soooooo curious to "see" some of her
puppets, does she have a web site ?  I really have a problem visualizing the
moveable "features" (other than the mouth, that is) made moveable on a foam
head.  Our guild had a workshop with one of the guys from "Grey Seal"
puppets and it was very good, but just one day and that's just not a medium
I feel really comfortable with !  I've seen some really great (obviously
foam) puppets on TV being used as vent figures.
