Here’s the progress I made today redoing a thrift store trunk. I purchased this spur of the moment last week when I was browsing at a thrift store. The dims are 14x10x14”. • I dubbed this the “Demri paper-dolls”. The edges and creases I applied French script specialty paper. I finished the top and the front section of the lid. Photos 1 & 2 are of what I did today; Photo 3 is a before pic. I’ll share more as things progress. —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #demri #demrilaraparrott #demrilara #demrimurphy #demriart #mixedmediaartist #artist #artbynehistripes #ouricons #makingmemories #demri #demritheiconicone (at Seattle USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoToJvyrxxX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I made this box for someone who started out being someone who could help me with the communication with potential buyers and various other tasks. This person has become someone I can bounce ideas off of and receive honest feedback/advice in return. For their continued help and just being there, the latest box of “Just Demri” is for @demri_lara_parrott . I can’t thank them enough. • • • Products used: Rocksteady & Pacific Wiseowl Chalk Paint colors; authentic dried flowers, Prima metallic paints; Prima hearts and stars metal pieces - hand painted by me.

Layne & Demri from 1992. This graphics edit is one that I did so I could use on a memory box I’m currently working on. • • The colors are exactly what I needed and luckily it’ll go with just about anything. I’ve also been teaching myself on Procreate, which is a digital art platform that I can use in my iPhone and iPad. I used Procreate on the texturing aspect. The wonderful thing about the Procreate application is that I’ll be able to use it to FINALLY finish a Layne piece I started 5 years ago. It was for what would’ve been his 50th b-day. • • @demri_lara_parrott is helping share the Layne/Demri boxes throughout the process. At some point, I’ll be selling them. • Photographer: Alison Braun, Los Angeles, California 1992. Graphics/Coloring -C.

Another fun pic had to share ; July 18, 1992 backstage at the Shoreline Amphitheater during Lollapalooza. Pearl Jam & Soundgarden congregate and Dave gets a little frisky with Stoney! Temple of the Dog also performed as a band on this day too. It was one of very very few that were done before they regrouped again for the 25th anniversary of their one & only self-titled album in 2016. • • I’m a huge fan of Dave Abbruzzese’s to this day! • • • • 📸 Jay Blakesberg @jayblakesberg @retroblakesberg —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #pearljam #soundgarden #nudedragons #lollapalooza #1990s #jayblakesberg #seattlesound #grungeera (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjeWssRprug/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I’m working on another new Demri Box. This is just a sneak peek. This box is completely different. It’s heavy, and looks a lot like pallets. However, there’s a lot of work to be done still. But the images give you an idea of my mindset. I love fairies and this one will have that, plus the vintage look we love, Demri loved. As with everything I start, it’s always a work in progress and Demri’s always guiding me. Any inquiries, please contact @demri_lara_parrott - this one has a ways to go still. • • • • • • • • —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #demriparrott #demrilaraparrott #demrimurphy #mixedmediaartist #artbynehistripes #makingmemories❤️ #ouricons #demri #demritheiconicone (at Nehi Stripes Seattle) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqPH3ebrgAt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
