Golden Igels



"Golden Igels"
Mixed Media

These little gals were inspired by our trip to the Skirball to see the Noah's Ark Exhibit that used found objects to create neat animals. The face/noses are the Otoscope covers nicked from Doctors Office during our Winter of A Thousand Colds and the large Hedgehog body was discovered on a walk around the park after ballet class and the baby Hedgehog body was collected during our canvasing duties for Obama. The feet are gold beads I found in the garage.
