Collages

This one looks a little weird in the picture, but in person it is so neat. The bug in the center was a broken figurine and he is sitting on top of some roses that were left over from another project. All of the flowers around him are from a pillow that started making when I was a teenager. My mother was trying to teach me needlepoint or crewel I'm not sure which. Either way I was never going to finish the pillow and so I was thrilled to chop it up and use it on this collage. I got my husband to cut the sun out of wood for me and I made the butterflies out of a costume jewelry bracelet that had broken and multi-colored feathers.

This is a figurine that I bought some time ago and she didn't really fit in with the other witches in my collection. I like her much more now that I have given her a few changes, stuck her on a canvas and surrounded her with talisman from the Black Pullet.

My Attempts with Polymer Clay

This is Priscilla the witch. She prefers to paint in her pastime but she also likes planting pansies next to her pathway. She's on Prozac which explains the dazed look or maybe that's the Percocet she snuck in earlier. She has a Pug named Parker but he's passed out in the parlour right now. She only eats parsnips, pumpkins, parsley, and pasta. Oh, and also peach and pecan pie because she is a southern girl from Pensacola or it could be because of the pot she puffed earlier.









This is Veronica the Victorian witch. She enjoys reading verses on her veranda surrounded by violets. She often violates the instructions on her Vicodin and Valium prescriptions which causes violent vomiting. She has a voracious appetite for venison and vinegar. She is also very fond of Vivaldi's Violin music.











This little dragon was one of my first tries with polymer clay. After I made him I really didn't know what to do with him so he got glued onto this board along with a bunch of rocks and some butterflies. He's just a happy little dragon living on his hillside now.
