An aHa Challange

Madzy Frightcicle with Shire


As a member of the American Holiday Artists group I was challanged to come up with an Alice in Wonderland inspired creation. Out of that challange came this piece:

Madzy Frightcicle with Shire. Madzy is surveying his little corner of Wonderland with the help of his furry friend. Madzy is secretly hoping that Shire doesn't tire of helping him and disappear before he has a chance to climb back down from the tree.

The spooky tree was created using paper clay over a wire frame. Madzy and Shire were created using custom colored polymer clay. The pieces were then handpainted using acrylic paint and chalks, antiqued and then sealed with a satin sealer to protect the finishes.

Fiona Frightcicle

Fiona Frightcicle has just finished decorating her tree for her favorite holiday, Easter. All her little Easter Egg ornaments are in place and now she just needs the finishing touch, a chocolate bunny tree topper. The only problem is, Fiona is just a tad too short for the job so she's desperately hoping that the tree will bend just a tad farther so she can reach it because she's precariously perched upon an unstable Easter egg.

Fancy Frightcicle

Little Fancy Frightcicle had just begun decorating her tree for her favorite holiday, when she noticed Fraidy Cat stuck at the top. Ducky came by to give her a boost so she could help Fraidy down, but Fraidy doesn't seem to need any help.

Another Frightcicle

Fritz Frightcicle
Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, Fritz Frightcicle found a bucket of gold coins and has just finished decorating his tree. And now he wants to finish his decorations with his favorite tree topper. A large Shamrock. There's only one problem. He's not quite tall enough and the toadstool he's standing on just doesn't get him quite hight enough. He'll just have to wait until the next breeze brings the top bough a little lower.
