Don't count me out.....
Don't count me out........I'm still here and creating unique characters. I will be posting items for sale online here, on my facebook and on Etsy.
Stop in or subscribe so you don't miss out.
This is my latest creation. I'm so excited to have come across the ribbon jointed doll. I bought a tutorial by Dorote Zaukaite to learn the "jointed technique" and then I created this dancing circus performer. I love everything about her, from her ballet pointe slippers to her Vegas style head dress.
Soon she will be all finished and available online for purchase.
A big thank you to all of my wonderful customers and artist friends who lift me up throughout the years.
XOXO

Wonderland OOAK Sculpture
$250 plus ship
Contact me at Susiewhc@gmail.com for questions or purchase
This is a
one of a kind sculpture. Standing about 20" high is my version of
Wonderland.
It all
started with a thrift store find. I
spied an iron candle stick with a blue half-moon made of glass and saw the
Cheshire Cat smiling back at me. I
couldn’t wait to get started, only to find out I would have a hard time
stopping………………
As I worked
in my little place I call a studio/laundry room, my mind kept willing me to add
more and more to this simple candle stick than just a cheesin’ cat. I began to build upwards making the teacup
take the place of where a candle would naturally stand. The teacup representing the infamous Mad Tea
Party, and painted with hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades as to not forget the
Queen of Hearts. Nestled inside the
teacup and sitting on his mushroom, is the hookah smoking, cantankerous yet
wise old caterpillar.
Taking
center stage wearing a Mad Hat is a Cheshire Cat smiling in his wicked
way. This is where a battery flicker
candle makes his smile even more illuminating.
Just below is the small vial of a special potion and the all-important
key to Alice’s imagination, along with the pocket watch representing the
illusive White Rabbit.
I hope you
enjoy this is a
