Beneath the Branches, a Love Story

Tufted Titmouse

Peaking through the leaves and branches of a tree, the Tufted Titmouse witnesses a love story unfolding. The body is made from a repurposed doll body, collaged clothing patterns and an image from an old book. The head and crest are made from an antique log cabin quilt block from my grandfather’s quilt and repurposed leather scraps and vintage French buttons.. The wings are vintage gloves dipped in gray clay paint and attached to the body with vintage buttons and antique beads.

Beneath the Branches, a Love Story is a one of a kind mixed media art doll sculpture with loop on the back for wall display and measures 16.5 x 5 x 4 inches
