Originality

A friend sent me pictures of his cousin’s Mardi Gras costume that he’d made and paraded in.

IMG_4150There’s so much stuff for sale or on view that we tend to forget the originality of regular people.

Most of our entertainment, our clothes and even our costumes are creations of professional artists. Those pros are usually good and often original, but they’re professionals so we expect them to be good.

A friend sent me pictures of his cousin’s Mardi Gras costume that he’d made and paraded in. The picture at the right is of the costume in action. Pretty impressive and original! And so was my friend’s, which was a slightly larger than life Roman centurion costume that looked more manageable than a giant face from a dream.

I don’t know if the giant face is supposed to be someone, but it doesn’t matter it’s original and cool.
