but not a bear

I will eat snails, but peaches give me the willies.  Illogical, I know.  It is about the fur.  I eat kiwi and coconut because it is clear they are meant to be peeled.  But fresh peaches have human-like hair growing that peeling seems a little cannibalistic.  I hear your snickering; don’t judge me.  I’ll eat my peaches canned or just settle for nectarines, thank-you-very-much.  This next Call is all about the fur… in a good way.  Take a look!

Check out this Call for Entries from White Flag Projects (St. Louis, MO) for Fur Elise, an artshow celebrating companion animals.  This show will be a little out there for some of you, but White Flag Projects is known for being on the edge… this is no exception.  Don’t miss this all hung opportunity!
