Description:
Patricia
is a 16 inch, one-of-a-kind sculpture. No moulds were used in her
construction. Her head, hands and legs are polymer clay. Her eyes
and facial features are hand-painted with Genesis Heat-set oil
paints. Her hair is viscose fibre. She has a cloth body over a
wire armature. Because of the leg and armature construction she
stands freely. She is dressed in a silk dress with an embroidered
yoke and has a hand painted silk sash. She wears stockings and
has leather shoes. Her coat is made from wool felt and is
embellished with faux fur fabric. Her cloche hat is wool and is
decorated with a hand painted silk sash and painted paper roses.
She has a leather handbag on her wrist that was inspired by a
picture of a French designed original handbag dated 1926. She has
with her a little dog that I hand-sculpted in polymer clay and
layered with viscose fibre in varying shades.
