Willard Wigan. Wow.

Hope you're having a great weekend. Mine could be... better. Helping a relative through a terminal illness? Even less fun than it sounds.

There's a character in Synecdoche who creates microscopic paintings. I'm guessing this was inspired by a guy named Willard Wigan, or by a handful of similar artists. AMAZING, I tell you. Look, and look and he's also in Wiki. I saw him on the news last week; apparently he made a miniature Alice in Wonderland but, says Willard, "I think I inhaled her."

That eBay auction in the last update was won by WiLL, a long-time (really long-time) BCK correspondent. HOORAY... unless, of course, it turns out to be not worth his money. A second pre-production brochure was also auctioned off and it was won by Tim, another long-time BCK correspondent. Proving that all your base are belong to BCK!! Hopefully we'll get scans.
