Clowns and Marionettes

Inspiration for my clowns reaches as far back as the 16th style of street performance known as Commedia dell'Arte (my Punch is a direct descendent of Pulcinella) as well as drawing from more modern sources like the wondrously imagined Cirque du Soleil. Here and there I take historical reference in the construction of certain aspects of the costuming process, but I love the freedom that clowns offer to pursue the most whimsical, ludic, and even absurd directions in their attire. A couple of my marionettes have found their way into the pop culture: Mlle. Senyah was created for a how-to project on HGTV's "That's Clever!", and I was commissioned by Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Darrell Scott to creat a portrait marionette for the cover of his cd "The Theatre of the Unheard". That cd became a Top 100 Critics Choice for Rolling Stone Magazine.

Miss Chronika Crumpet: A Faerie From the Unseelie Court

New for the June EHAG Emporium sale is Miss Chronika Crumpet! Miss Chronika is a mischievious goblin girl who rides with the wild Unseelie Court of Scottish folklore every Hallowe'en night!

She is a OOAK sculpt in polymer clay, finely painted with Genesis Heat Set Paint, and is dressed in pure dupioni silk, wool felt, sari fabric and trims.

Miss Chronika Crumpet carries a hand sculpted pumpkin-headed basket to frighten the unsuspecting populace throughout the countryside!

She is priced at $375 (plus $10 shipping), and is available through Etsy.

Please check out more wonderful Hallowe'en art offered through the EHAG Emporium!

Thanks for looking!
