A nude adult person seen from behind climbs between tan sandstone rock formations in a desert setting. They brace one hand on the rock while holding a small bundle of dried grasses; similar grasses are tucked at the lower back. The figure’s posture is dynamic and grounded, with warm natural light emphasizing the textures of skin and stone. Model is Kristy Jessica Photographer is @carolynjean_withcamera

A good artist lets intuition lead them wherever they want to go. I’m a wild thing and I want to climb higher!

I’m wearing an outfit I hand crafted from bones, grass and burlap 🌱🦴🤎💚

Tim and Bill playing guitars; Graeme on drums. All are dressed in outrageous rock getup.

Masterful as it is, the playing of Wild Thing in its entirety seems overly extravagant... but not so much as when they played it *again* less than a year later in The Goodies – Almost Live! #Goodies50 #WildThing

Love this song!! Check Out my Music Collection linda-howes.pixels.com/featured/wil...
