Lady #3

This is the last piece I finished for a project I’ve been working on- a group photo which I will post tomorrow.

She has a funny, kind of smirky smile.

I considered redoing it but then decided I liked it and it gave her some feisty personality.

She has a dog covering her entire chest.

She has another animal on her arm but I’ve never been able to figure out exactly what animal it is- a badger maybe?

tattooed lady 1

This is the first time I’ve made a dark-skin tattooed lady. Getting things dyed to colors that work for skin tones is a real challenge.

I embroidered her hair design.

This outdoor photo shows the color in her pants the best. Pretty fancy!

Yes, lots of pics. I couldn’t help myself!

Goat, swan, foliage, on his arms.

I know it is crazy for him to be bare-chested out in the snow, but really, no worries- he has a scarf and hat!

Green Man

I’m making a range of fellows for a project I have in mind- so now, a green man.

March is giving us a rough time here in Boston. After a number of single degree nights, the poor crocus that bloomed at the end of February are now mushy blobs of color, peeking through the snow. Tomorrow we are suppose to have a blizzard so no more pics for a few days. That’s winter in New England.

 

Man 2 for 2017

I’m a little worried that his hair wandered over into Mr. T territory. I never notice this stuff until I am looking at the photos.

Architecture on his arms-

Thank you for all the support from yesterday’s post- it really helps to know that I am part of a caring community around the world.
