history heavy...for Miss Arcade

No.8....sometimes i sit down for a day and finish. this one took a year


mossy twig bones to start
bird bones from the garden
sewn on old velvet
sweet friends save their haircuts for me
wrapped in the oldest of netting
taking shape




training the birthday lilacs

incorporating Nickhole's broken rosaries and old French coins


whiskers and buds. buds and whiskers
the mysterious blonde makes an appearance 
as does Minnie the dog, Jimmy the cat

 i found the perfect mirrored and clear combination glass case....
with Nickhole
