I created a Lemontzz (being) on my commute home one afternoon. This was by ‘accident’ one could say (- or was it?). The little, quirky character seen in whacky Halloween images wasn’t really planned – it just ‘sorta’ emerged.
You see, “when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade” right? Well, LemontzzAide came about that way.
Much of my seeking for answers to certain challenging issues, took place during those long travel commutes. These were my ‘think times,’ my ‘conversations with inner self.’ Not all of these images were light and quirky, as a matter of fact, they didn’t begin that way at all. It was out of the more serious doodles that the lemon appeared on the page.
I felt ‘like a lemon.’ Then, it happened … In the amidst of sketches describing what I felt that day, there it was … Enter the lemon! I don’t know why but the lemon drawings emerged ‘just for fun,’ a parody of sorts among the more serious images. As the two realities collided, ‘burdened and stressed’ with ‘quirky and fun’ moments, ‘LemontzzAide’ emerged. It was a route to healing – hence the ‘aid’ with a band aid for my ‘life gash’.
Halloween was coming up and I just played with having the lemontzz being enter the world of Halloween. At first, I didn’t think of it, it was just a reflection of my reality – lots of lemons and Halloween all around. The two came together.
I know it’s silly but the silliness emerged and I simply let it ‘happen’ anyway. It made me smile. I remember when I began to develop them how they took me away from my reality and how much amused I was on looking at the little character.
For a little laugh and a dose of ‘weird’, you can check out the lemontzz at my store (My website is under construction at the moment)
