The Unusual Boy ,design Ankie Daanen
While attending Ankie's one day workshop and while the doggy paper clay sculptures were drying in the turbo oven, Ankie surprised us all by giving us a kit to make this little flat headed boy doll.
His body is a candle stick which was painted with acrylic paint. His arms & legs are electrical wire, his hands and boots were paper clay sculpted. His head is a flat round disk to which paper clay and the facial features and pointed nose were added. The unusual features are his pants and arms. Ankie used ribbon material which had wires on the outer edges, which were gathered after sewing the ribbon edges together. Hands and boots were glued into the wires and then glued to the body candle stick. The head was glued to the wires also, Hair was added and a copper cone hat , which Ankie sold last year at the workshop I attended where we made Ankies "Funny Girl "
This Unusual Boy is now keeping the Blue Doggy BoBoy on his leash (-:
