AND PRINCE by Max

Patsy once
heard a story about a little girl bear named Cinderella, and a little
boy bear who was a prince.
|
 |
She
likes to pretend that she's Cinderella, and that her teddy bear is the
prince, which, of course, is why she named him "Prince".
|

|
Patsy
can't remember the details of the story very well, but it seems that
Cinderella had a beary godmother who made her a lavender
polka
dot dress and glass shoes. Then Cinderella went to a big fancy dance at
the palace and met the prince.
|
 |
The prince thought
Cinderella was the nicest little bear at the dance, and that she
definitely had the prettiest dress.
|
 |
Not being the
most graceful of dancers, Cinderella stumbled and lost her shoe. She
was so embarrassed she ran home.
|
 |
The
next day, the prince came directly to her house, not only to give back
her shoe, but to bring her some wonderful pumpkin cupcakes. They sat
and ate them together, and all was just right in the world.
|
 |
Patsy's
lavender polka dot dress has a pale turquoise scalloped trim around the
neckline and sleeves, and a pale turquoise sash tied in a big bow at
the back.
|
 |
| The three
tiers of her petticoats are painted turquoise,
orchid, and lavender blue. |
 |
Patsy
is an original one-of-a-kind work of art and is meant for display only.
No molds are ever used in my work. She and her teddy bear are hand
sculpted in paperclay, and they are entirely hand painted using acrylic
paints.
|
 |
| Patsy
is signed and dated and sealed with matte
varnish for
protection and preservation. She rests firmly on a turned wooden base
that is stained and sealed in golden oak. Patsy stands 4 3/4 inches
tall. |
 |
| Many
hours go into the making of each of my dolls.
I strongly believe in fine craftsmanship and artistry, and
I pay great
attention to small details. Each
doll is
a unique work of art, and I am able to produce them in only a very
limited
number. I do my
best to create
little dolls with big personalities because that is what I love to do. |
