Chester - Ready for Halloween
Chester is a one of a kind Skelly Halloween Original Art piece made by me. Chester was created from a pre made plastic skelton head that I painted and mounted to a black wooden candle stand. He is approximately 15" tall and 5" wide. Chester was painted with artist acrylics, has a paperclay eyeball and was double sealed with a matte varnish. He is adorned with a custom paper top hat trimmed with muslin, tattered and aged cheesecloth along with feathers. He sports a orange and black bow along with tattered and aged cheesecloth. His attached placard is sealed paper and reads
Chester and the Bone Yard Band. Chester comes with a handmade from paperclay smiling pumpkin that sits at the base of his stand.
Chester is an adorable (in a gory sort of way) Skelly that will brighten your Halloween party, he is perfect for a Halloween tablescape, looks great on a bar or piano and he is ready to party!

GLADYS A WONDERFUL WITCH
Gladys is a unique one of a kind witch creation made by me. She is a large witch 52" tall, which includes her wonderful witches hat and is she about 18" wide, in the second photo shown she is sitting in a white chair which is a regular people dining chair. Gladys is
sculpted paperclay over a wire and cotton batting armature and is dressed in a wonderful combination of black and white fabrics with some burnt orange accents, her long full white hair is made from wool roving. She is wired so her arms and legs are able to be positioned in a variety of poses. Gladys is dressed and embellished with a variety of fabrics, lace, feathers, jewelry and trims, some of which are vintage. When I create my witches it seems that at a certain point they take over the design process and help me to conjure up a truly unique character and Gladys dictated that she would be a fun loving but elegant witch. Gladys comes with her very own glass of witches brew (non spillable) complete with a spider stir stick and an eyeball olive. Until my creations go to their new homes I enjoy them by displaying them in my home, Gladys perches on a bench in my living room and more than once she has encouraged me to sit down with her and share a witchy story and a drink, she really makes a great drinking companion.
Maude a Fun Loving Witch decked out in green. Maude is available to purchase and will be listed in my Etsy shop mid September
Maudie is an original creation made by me. she is sculpted with paper clay over a wire and cotton batting armature and carefully painted with artist acrylics and double sealed with matte varnish. She is playfully dressed and is adorned with various fabrics, lace, feather and jewel embellishments some of which are vintage Maudie has brown wool roving hair. She loves her sweet black cat with his wire whiskers and orange polka dot vest. Maudie is a big witch, the white chair she is sitting in on the first picture is a standard people dining chair. She is approximately 46" tall with her hat and about 19" wide. Her arms and legs are wired so she is able to be displayed in various poses. I always say that when I create my witches at one point they seem to cast a spell on me and dictate the development of their own individual character. Maudie is definitely a unique witch, her mischievous smile and twinkly eyes make me smile every time I look at her. I am sure that she is conjuring up a spell or a practical joke to brighten my day.

Moldy Bones
Moldy Bones is an original Halloween Skelly made by me, Moldy is 15" tall and 4" wide. He is an altered plastic skelly head mounted on a femur bone with a wooden base. Moldy is painted with artist acrylics and double sealed with a matte varnish. He is embellished with a bit of green moss and green and black ribbon along with some tattered and aged cheesecloth. His sealed paper placard says Moldy Bones. Moldie's mold green top hat is made from paper and is festooned with cheesecloth, ribbon and feathers. Moldy is a fun but rather gruesome Halloween decoration perfect for a Halloween tablescape or he would definately gloom up any corner you wish to display him in.
