The witch with the red shoes

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

These last days, we have been reading "The worst witch" every night before bedtime with my youngest daughter and I am sure my red shoes witch would be a great friend with Mildred and Maude and share happily their daily adventures.
She is handmade from textiles, a mix of new and upcycled materials. I have used acrylic paint to colour her hat and top black. I like the effect of paint on fabric and the "rough" texture it can create. Her hair is braided in a strand of flax.
Her shoes are painted red. She holds a cute little black cat in her arms and is sitting on a broomstick.

I have added a loop at the back of the head so she can be displayed nicely and easily on your walls.
She cannot stand nor sit in her own. She can be sat prodded against a bigger object.
Please display away from direct sunlight and from any contact with water.

Measurements
She measure approximately 20 cm or 7.8 inches.
The widest length is 15 cm or 5.9 inches.

She is signed. 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.
