"The Tailor"

11" x 14" assemblage
soft sculpture bird with wire legs wrapped in floral tape and painted gold, flour sack, paper ephemera, acrylic paint, vintage wooden spool, red leather

I named this piece "The Tailor" at the suggest of Mijk. Thanks!

I got some gold paint for the birds legs and they are so pretty now.  I like metallic paint.I planned this piece on a rectangular grid and it was pretty fun to figure out what would be in each space.

I'm really happy with this piece - not so much with the one that came before it, though. Often I think it is this way, the most successful ones follow the least successful.

I love all the elements in this piece - and the gold legs on the bird are just perfect.
