"Day Dream Believer"















Here she is. :)   
I have named this piece "Day Dream Believer".   I can just imagine her standing in front of a mirror....gazing at her image and loving what she sees......and dreaming of the day that she is presented to the world.

14-1/2" tall.  An original sculpt in Prosculpt clay.  Hand painted eyes.  Head piece is created with tiny shells and micro beads, and then embellished with antique wax bridal flowers, glass leaves, netting and fabric leaves.
Her gown is made of antique metallic lace and netting.  It is embellished with the tiny wax flowers, fabric leaves and again, bits of antique silk bridal netting.  

Running down her back is a train of apoxie sculpt clay ( for support and strength ) covered with antique handmade lace and finished with irridescent powders.
Her wings are tiny wire and metal mesh pieces, embellished with wax flowers.
The antique netting that runs along the edge of her train and forms her skirt has been sealed and strengthened with a fabric hardener and then painted with irridescent paint.

Her base is a mosaic of soft blue glass tiles, sea shells, micro beads, glass leaves and rhinestones.
