We have a some little friends! The otter and sprite and made from painted Lutradur, as are all of the rocks.
The sprite's antennae is cut from a large sequin, the flowers are cut from fused fabric (the blues are hand-dye from Deb Lactiva); and the tree is needle felted as mentioned in Monday's post.
Here, we have one of the process photos I found - someone hiding in the trees. She was put there while I was testing the effect of the foreground tree, but below, you'll find her as she appears in the final piece...
She peeking!
And you know who else is peeking? That little cat in the tree. :)
And a little fairy door.
I can hardly wait to show you the finished piece on Friday. I really believe it's the best thing I've ever made! *bounces excitedly*
I can't wait to see this! :D
ReplyDeleteLove the tree textured look..........wonderfully rich.
ReplyDeleteSeems a shame to see so little of your peeping lady but she would scare the forest folk of course lol if she was to be more prominent.
Trust a cat to hang in there LOL
Its fun and looks smashing even now
Kit, it's incredible. There are so many wonderful things going on in this piece. I can't wait to see the final reveal on Friday!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! (squeal too) Looks like a really fun piece!! I hope this is a book "illustration" / artwork. There sure looks like a story in there somewhere!
ReplyDeleteI love this too. Reminds me of the four musicians and the antennae made from a cut sequin just puts it over the top. Your trees are fabulous and actually always have been. Love the fairy door. We have many fairy communities here in Maine (really)
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a book illustration (as Becky mentioned). Looks great so far - will be fun to see it finished ! (glad you found some process pics on your camera!)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait... Email me when you're ready and I'll do the promo post on the TGIFF site!
