'Sweet Papillon'

'Sweet Papillon' is a 6.5" La De Da' Assemblage Art Bear. “Papillon” in French means Butterfly. Her art canvas torso and foot pads have been heavily textured in many mixed media elements and then followed with layers of story telling assemblage: metal fleur de lis, buttons, lace, book print, chain, and other textural elements. On her crown is the same textures with a dimensional butterfly. This artistic composition is very 'haute shabby'. She is created in a scruffy sparse mohair which has been meticulously hand painted in a watercolor like textile pigment medium in subtle shades for dimension and interest. The fur is left very soft, only stained, never hardened.
