Carolyn Wilder - As Seen on T.V. (Broccoli Man)

Reminds me of an octopus or something like that. It could be a squid. But, it does look like broccoli.

The green will probably glow in ultraviolet light. It has four feet and two hands. It has three eyelashes in the center on the left eye and three on the side on the right eye. It’s a lot different than the other pieces in the “As Seen on TV” series: the texture on its fur hat.

“As Seen On TV” title could mean it’s from an advertisement. She gets her ideas from TV. She adapts them from TV. She pulls from TV because of its availability. More people have TVs. It may be something she saw on TV when she was younger. She made it so that the character is not particularly meant for the ad. She put her own spin on it. It doesn’t look mass produced or copied. It was done hand by hand. Makes it unique. It adds value to these characters to make them into art.
