Detail from Self Portrait
This is one of two "God's Eyes" I made while at the Watonga Vacation Bible School two weeks ago. I had first heard of a "God's Eye" in elementary school, in fifth or sixth grade. The one I made then was with thick twigs and black-and-white yarn.
This God's Eye was made with varigated yarn. That's why it's multicolored.
My paternal grandfather also put things on the headstock of his guitar. I still have the small guitar, "Made in Mexico", that he strapped on with a rubber band. I suppose I am continuing his tradition.
