I saw Mrs. Cheery
Sitting on a bumble-eerie
Eating chocolate sodas.
One of a kind 8" Mrs. Cheery
is a chubby little elf woman
made with a sculpted head, hands and feet
and soft sculpted body of batting and cottonwool.
Her snappy little black eyes and features are handpainted,
and her fly away hair is of black alpaca.
She wears a printed cotton shirtwaist,
skirt and kerchief and her wings are made of wire and nylon.
Her black leather pointed toed boots have cut outs that show her
bright red stockings.
She is completely original and One of a Kind.
SOLD- Thank you!

The Soft Sculpture Process
How it begins...
These photos show the evolution of a Soft Sculpture using the example of Freya, my Autumn Fairy created in 2008.
