"Sufficient Phaeton"... a New Art Doll!

The inspiration for this newest art doll
comes from one of Emily Dickinson's poems!
This raggle-taggle rider is made from 
paperclay, canvas duck cloth and wood.
He wears a small, vintage oil can on his head.
He will eventually have articulated arms and legs...
A paperclay head (to cover this styrofoam ball)
 and paperclay hands are in the works!
I will post the poem that inspired him in a day or so...  
Blessings, Daryle

    I am always so inspired by Dickinson and I am sure I will be even more inspired by you when he is completed. I will be waiting on pins and needles to see him done!!
