It’s Almost Festival Time!

June 1, 2011 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

This year I’m happy to be participating in a couple of local festivals. The first one, coming up in July, is the Berea Craft Festival. The Berea Craft Festival is a juried show & will feature 100+ artists & crafters from Kentucky & surrounding states. It will also feature great food and local entertainment. Berea Craft Festival is considered one of the best art & craft festivals in the country. If you can only attend one festival this year, this is a great one! I’m thrilled to be participating & am creating several pieces with a more Appalachian flavor just for this show.

This is the current brochure for the 2011 Berea Craft Festival. (See some familiar artwork?) Click the images below to visit the Berea Craft Festival website, for dates, driving directions, local accommodations & more! Hope to see you in Berea!

Rosetta – A Sparkly Garden Fairy.

April 10, 2011 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

Meet Rosetta. She’s my newest creation & is my offering for April’s PFATT Marketplace update. Rosetta is an OOAK (original, one of a kind) paperclay creation. She will not be reproduced.

Rosetta is 10.75” tall with a wingspan of 5”. She is a wee little charmer for sure! Rosetta’s head is made from paperclay over Styrofoam armature, securely sculpted to a papermache cone base. Additional paperclay details include Rosetta’s leafy collar & the petals of her beautiful skirt. Rosetta is a free-standing doll & because she was built on a cone base, she can also be used as a lovely tree topper in your shabby-chic or romantic, Victorian home.

Rosetta has been hand-painted top to bottom with a variety of media in several layers. She has a great vintage patina & lots of texture! Rosetta has been sealed with matte sealant, but has a slight sheen.

Her wings are machine-quilted muslin. The front of Rosetta’s wings are heavily dusted with vintage-style glass glitter. They are securely attached to Rosetta’s body with embroidery thread & vintage, mother of pearl buttons.

Rosetta can be purchased here. Make sure to check out the many wonderful offering by members of the PFATT (Primitive Folk Art Talk & Tea) Marketplace members.
