Best Friends

This is a handmade textile artwork inspired by folk art dolls.

It is made from a mix of new and upcycled materials.
The cute little character has pink hair made of felting wool. She wears a paper mâché crown.
One of her eyes is a button while the other is painted.
She has big red cheeks, a big smile with plenty of teeth and a stitched nose.
She wears an outfit (sewn on her body) with a few patches and has red painted boots on her feet.
She holds her best friend in her arms. It is a little dog made from painted textile.

At the back of the head, I have sewn a little fabric loop so she can be displayed on your walls easily.
She cannot stand but can sit propped against a book or a wall on a shelf.

The artwork measures approximately 25cm.
It is signed.

Please note that this is not a toy, it is created for display.

As a doll maker inspired by folk art dolls, I want to say that the fabric fraying, the threads still showing or the way things are attached to each other are all voluntary processes. This is the way I find that my creations are beautiful. This is how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
