Dad's Moose

Dad has spent the weekend working on a moose scarecrow to be entered into competitions at Monmouth Fair and Litchfield Fair.  The base is an old Hoover vaccuum cleaner--really heavy so the whole thing won't topple over.  Attached to that is part of a lamp base.  The body is a lion costume Mom made years and years ago which I sewed over the lamp base.  The head was once a papier mache donkey's head--a little brown paint and antlers made from foam core helped with the transition to moose.  Dad painted some garden claws black for the "hands" and the legs fit into a tall pair of Dad's boots.

Guess we'll name him Bullwinkle.  Should I put a squirrel on his shoulder wearing an aviator cap???

"Bird Song" 6X6 canvas

6X6 blank canvas
yellow acrylic paint
birch trees stencil and black pen
Pitt White paint pen
Washi tapes--8 of them
Memory Box tiny birds dies and black paper

I started this project in Deb Schaefer's Studio in Newcastle on Wednesday afternoon, May 4th.
I worked on it some more at home that evening, coloring the trees and adding more Washi tape.
I finished it up by adding these Washi tapes--birds on the wires and music notes--and the die cut tiny birds.
