~Hibernation~

~When wandering through the soft snowy stillness of the Wintry woods tread lightly, so as not to wake those slumbering quietly.~


I am SO pleased with this piece!

I try SO hard, as I'm sure you all do, to come up with something different, unique, special and all my own. It's hard..truly HARD! SO...when it happens....and we come up with something that's unique, special and all our own... ...it's exciting......VERY EXCITING..and....I think I just may have done it with this piece!!!

I have taken all the different mediums I've tried over the years and combined them. Finally my back and forth and dabbling in so many different mediums has formed a result! :) There is a little bit of everything in this piece....mohair, clay, fabric, paper, wood, moss......sewing, sculpting....painting...:) I had SO much fun creating her! Many...many (did I say MANY) hours went into this sweet gal. I was thinking today that I should of kept track..but, of course, I didn't! I will for the next time as I've already been jotting down ideas for my next one.


I have also been wanting to figure out a way to create a mixed media piece that would have enough detail to tell a story all on it's own..by just looking at it....with maybe just a title or a few words.

This gal is simply called "Hibernation"
I was hoping to make you see and feel the sense of Hibernation...by just looking at her.

To give the sense of bears & animals..deep in the woods, amongst the snow, mossy trees, rocks & caves...hidden deep in the warmth of the earth..slumbering until Spring.....

"Hibernation" is now available on My Website
