Description: Run Run Fast As You Can - ORIGINAL Skelly Sculpture Ornament 6.5"x3.5"x3.5" (BIDDING ENDS SATURDAY 12/5 at 5PM! Bid online here: http://www.basementgalleryboise.com/auction/pop4.html) Please hurry and save Gingy from this bony menace!!
Here is one of the creepiest but cutest baubles for your tree! Whether it's for your Halloween tree or your Christmas tree, this fella is full of mischief! He's pretty good sized for an ornament, too! He's as big as my hand, and he's about the dimensions of a coffee mug (much lighter though!) I recently dropped off this darling little Skelly for the Basement Gallery's Benefit Auction! This guy was so much fun to create! He is being auctioned off with all proceeds going to Life's Kitchen-- an organization dedicated to transforming the lives of at-risk young adults by building self-sufficiency and independence through comprehensive food service and life skills training, and placement in the food service industry. This sculpture was dreamily sculpted and magically painted as a one of a kind piece for your tree -- all done by me! You may see the original painting that inspired this sculpture here: http://www.mistybenson.com/RunRunFastAsYouCan.html
I have never sculpted an ornament before! It took me a week to create this little guy, so no matter the final price, you'll be getting an original sculpture and your money's worth! Don't miss your chance to get this piece of dark humor!
Artist: Misty Benson (me!)
Ornament's Name: Run Run Fast As You Can...
Materials: Mixed Media (Acrylic Paint and Paperclay) He is about 6.5" tall by 3.5" by 3.5".
About the Skelly: Run, run fast as you can! You can't catch me! I'm the Gingerbread Man! These were the famous last words of the Gingerbread Man right before this little skelly caught him! This morbidly adorable fella loves his sugar! I cannot tell you how this will end, but if Gingy had fingers, he'd be crossing them! Enjoy this fractured fairy tale!
