The Heart Fir Tree Faerie
Click an image for a detailed view.
This wee lass is at once impish and steadfast. She dresses in uncommonly fanciful clothing to match the color of her wings. Her hair is in wild ringlets and her hats may often be outrageous. But, her silken heart, carried in her arms, is always her signature. She comes unbidden to remind us "to lead with our hearts and lighten the world."
Her armature is a fine ivory wool. Felted wool rovings create her cape while watercolored feathers from Martha's bare-eyed cockatoo become wings. Vintage beads and passementerie are used for embellishment. Hair is fabricated from wool rovings, and each head is crowned with a handmade & watercolored paper.
Tabletop or suspended from vintage gold metal cording; 6" h x 2 1/2" d x 4"-6" spread wing spread
