Art Chick Chic

Where or where did she end up? I created this art-winged angel for a silent art auction for which I could not attend. She did get auctioned off I am told but wondered where or where she did end up. Part of my Spindly Personalities series, her body is fashioned from an antique staircase spindle. Her wings are made from a wooden paint palate and skirt from mouldable wire mesh. Her stunning height of 32" is given rise by an iron candlestick. If you know of her whereabouts... I'd love to hear!

Up, Up and Away!

Isn't this fun! In this mixed media piece, the cow is being carried off by straps into space(?). He also has feathers on his back to aid in his elevation. Various antique buttons give girth to his belly and give his eyes a Coraline-esque appearance. The 16" X 20" original painting, on a gallery-depth canvas, is finished with a top coat of glossy resin epoxy.
