I just listed my Little "White Rabbit" from Alice in Wonderland on e-bay tonight!
This was my first animal doll to make with with clay and cloth. I was really thinking about how everything would come together. Really I was shooting for perfection but that didn't happen. The first Jacket I made didn't do him justice so I made him another one. Two jackets, all hand painted, Boy I must be nuts!..
My brothers face said it all when he saw the rabbit. He was in awe! And to be honest, I really don't care if I sell my rabbit because I love it. When I look at it, I think wow God was holding my hands when I was making it (so to speak). I worked so very hard on on it, took me a week to make and so worth every minute.
I'll be listing Alice and Mad Hatter sometime tomorrow, God Willing.
For all that are wanting to know,
All is well with my brother, Thank the Lord!
