Moontrash from Lisa Iversen

This piece arrived in a beautiful box. She says she found this crushed can tucked inside a tree. I think she must have sanded this down to get the sheen on it that does make it look lunar. It's mounted on a 5 by 7 or so posterboard and looks to be leaping out. I really love this thank you sooo much Lisa! very elegant trashpo--so classy I think it's more of trachic

Yah, "To Kill a Mockingbird" is one of my all-time favorite books AND movies. Named one of my cats after Scout. Have one now that should be named Boo.

Comment by DKeys on October 11, 2011 at 4:31pm: yup, standard reading. Also like Letter Boxing

Comment by David Stafford on October 11, 2011 at 4:27pm: Yes, Boo Radley leaves his treasures for Scout in the tree. Our tree is the mailbox.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on October 11, 2011 at 4:25pm: Yes, was... There was some 50th anniversary of its publication last year or the year before and it experienced a minor revival.

Comment by cheryl penn on October 11, 2011 at 4:22pm: I would have thought that was standard school literature - it is - no, let me make that WAS here :-) X

Comment by De Villo Sloan on October 11, 2011 at 4:14pm: I don't know who knows what. "To Kill A Mocking Bird" is kinda esoteric unless you're interested in Alabama and maybe Truman Capote.

Comment by cheryl penn on October 11, 2011 at 4:09pm: Is that a rhetorical question??

Comment by De Villo Sloan on October 11, 2011 at 4:07pm: This also made me think of the book and movie "To Kill A Mocking Bird." Doesn't that Boo character leave bits of trash in a tree that the kids find? It's sort of Trashpo because they try to figure out what the bits and pieces mean. Does anyone else know "To Kill A Mocking Bird"?

Comment by cheryl penn on October 11, 2011 at 3:28pm: I wonder if it would grow into a bonsai? Amazing :-) x
