Description

This is one of my vintage mixed media sculptures, with a mirrored ball backdrop. It is only 13 1/2" tall. The figures are hand-sculpted in low-fired clay, painted with acrylic and touches of enamel paint. I have embellished it with a feathered boa, and a wired gauze skirt among other bits. They are mounted on a wood base with a black and white tile pattern.
It was the first artwork I won a monetary prize with.
The faces, dress and style harken back to pre-WWII movies with elegant dance numbers.
I don't recommend this for a very large print (over 24") if you are looking for a very crisp image.
