After seeing your exhibit at the GhettoGloss Gallery last night, my question was: “What does Allee want?”
There is a lot of cross-over in our collections.
The simple answer is…
Fidel Castro carved from an avocado pit!
Artfully carved and hand painted, the pit falls in such a way that Fidel is always looking down.
And if this pit could talk, he would say to you: “Pick me! Pick me! I have Kitsch of the Day written all over me!”

I hear you, Fidel! Just the fact that someone would choose as their life’s mission to carve avocado pits is impressive enough but the fact that F. Castro is who ends up there is even more wonderful. Now if we only knew who carved it I have a lot of rotting avocados sitting on my kitchen windowsill waiting to lead the revolution. A real beaut of a pit!

Glad to find something you don’t have! Wonder if Che is out there somewhere. Maybe on a Che-rry pit.

I think I saw Jimmy Carter on a peach pit.

Dave Vamos used to carve incredible tikis out of peach pits.

Maybe there’s a new industry out there. I have 3 avocado trees, if anyone needs raw materials donated.
