In a leaf

This is a handmade textile artwork inspired by folk art and by autumn.

The trees have started their annual show of colours in here and it is such a nice view when going out to take my daughter to school.
I have created a little character whose shape is vaguely inspired by the shape of a leaf. I have dyed it in the colours of fall, yellow, orange and red. In his arm, he lods a bunch of yellow flowers (which are actually dried stems painted in yellow acrylic I picked in my garden last year at the end of summer).
I have decided to wrap him in a Leaf-Like blanket and I think that he does look pretty cosy in it.
His eye is made of a black glass eye.

Measurements:
The artwork measures approximately 24 cm or 9.5 inches in length and 6cmor 2 inches in width.

At the back, I have sewn a little fabric loop so it can be hung on your walls.
It cannot stand nor sit.

Please display away from direct sunshine and from any source of water.

This is not a toy.

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 how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
