california_dreamin Photo Gallery by GeneWard at pbase.com

Discarded, headless Barbie emerges from the sand, experiments with various heads and hairstyles and delights in the found bounty of beach trash. Sated, she returns to the sea. This was a joint project with my wife, Vera. All objects used in these photos were found on Pacific Beach, California.

creating out of things found on the beach - used to do as a hippie but am glad you at last have tried something unorthodox - donot not be afraid and YOUR wife likewise

A headless Barbie is a truly frightening sight!! And, believe me, I've seen enough of them over the years.

Guest		12-May-2006 05:32
looks like a male thing to me. who would possibly design a doll like that?

Guest		11-May-2006 21:12
Glad to finally see you both have a "wild side"!

Guest		11-May-2006 13:38
