Mug #5 - Lulu

Lulu is the fifth suspect in the 2012 Hilton Head Caper series

I didn't capture the great sneer Lulu had in the original mug shot, but I'm pretty happy with my results.  Well to be honest, the only thing that kind of resembles her is her hair!  Thank goodness there will many more mugs to practice on. 

WANTED

Regula, aka, “Babyface” Scheifele

4x4 oil on gessobord

  

 Here is Supervisor Wanda's write up on Lulu...suspect #5:

This sisterhood of felons is far craftier than originally thought.  It appears they have infiltrated the international banking industry.  The trail has led to unnumbered Swiss bank accounts and charges of illegal trading of high end art on the international commodities market.  It is assumed that Regula “Babyface” Scheifele spearheads this branch.

Regula (also known as Lulu) is a long time member of the Hilton Head gang and has recently joined an elite splinter group, the Hilton Head Four.  We do not know their true purpose but speculate that it involves creating original art and selling or trading it across international borders.   Lulu travels frequently under the guise of mild mannered artist to workshops or vacations in exotic destinations.  Her goal is ‘establishing individual connections’ and ‘transporting emotions’ which we suspect are for nefarious purposes.  She is often reported being in the vicinity when  shooting happens and we have heard rumours that the “Snoopy Guys” have become targets.  She must be apprehended and removed from the beaches.  Please duplicate the attached image asap and distribute widely.

Treasure Hunter

I fell in love with the lime green boots.  I saw this young man exploring in the town square fountain in Old Town Alexandria, VA where they have a wonderful farmer's market every Saturday morning.  It was early spring and the fountain was dry except for some water from a recent rain.  It was obviously a favorite pastime, because he was wearing his boots and headed straight for the puddles.

The photo is a little light.  The colors are more reverberant in person.  The painting was just purchased by a gentleman who said his mother stopped to enjoy the painting every time she walked by it. The best compliment ever.
