Description
Eyke (pronounced "Ike" because I thought he looked like Eisenhower when he was just a face)This guy is who ended up going to the show in NY -his was a command performance, LOL
Eyke is sculpted in polymer clay and stands just a touch below 14 inches (with his staff), he's one of my spoon dolls. Poor Eyke has been much neglected hanging around my studio in the buff, his destiny was to go to for some "fashion consulting" my I'm such a bum I never got around to sending him *cringe* sorry Julie! BUT we do plan on doing a swap at some point... eh he. Maybe do a piece together? hmm??
Anyway Eyke was finally dessed in both assorted fabrics and leathers including ostrich leg leather (his vest) and bull frog leather (patches on his cap and his pants). I love using stuff like this, but I've held on to these for so long I was hesitant to use them... you know how it is.

Muahaha! YES it's the real deal! Freaky isn't it?? When I got it in the mail .. oh I hate to say it, LOL but it looked like a frog that had been hit by a steam roller.. LOL but it is truly awesome to behold.
Thanks so much - glad you like him, I know just how you feel though, where did the time go??

There's not really a compromise is there? Either you are an artist full time, or u do something else full time and have no time for art. I wish I could do a little of both!
I like froggies and dont like the idea of them being quished for art supplies...oO
Then again, I wear leather shoes....
