Why
Dogs and Blueberries?
Nancy,
the artist, had been making blueberry pancakes for her family, every
morning
all summer long. There was something magical about the process, even
though she didn't eat many of them for fear of blowing up. But what
she did eat,
she would walk off at Crissy Field in San Francisco. One day she noticed
the barbeque pits and thought how wonderful it would be to make pancakes
in a frying pan over the coals near the Golden Gate Bridge. Admiring
the dogs on her walks she imagined that not only would she like the
experience,
but so would the dogs. So in a flash the first image came to mind. It
was "Pancake Barbeque" #106. From
then on, she imagined many more images of dogs and blueberries. Stories
followed.
She thinks the images are representative of her wacky
free associative mind which keeps her creative and happy.
What is the story behind Blueberry Dogs?
The pretend mythical character, Endorphenella (pronounced like "endorphin"
then "ella"), caused
the Big Blueberry Bang. She
nurtured the dogs that had developed from the primordial exploding goo.
They
grew
up and became very involved in their world while joyous in their interactions
with blueberries. Bruce, the purple dog, ultimately ran for mayor on
a
flying pancake.
His platform of Arms for Pancakes was revolutionary. He took the world's
old
war ships, removed the weapons and replaced them with pancake making
equipment. By touring the world, he took arms from countries in exchange
for pancake
making training thus creating jobs and helping curb starvation.
