Alice in Wonderland mixed media paper mache birdies



I stumbled into Michael's the other day and found these sweet little paper mache birds.  Then all of a sudden, "POW" inspiration hit me right between the eyes!  I've been creating with vintage papers and acylic paints lately and I thought why not add Alice in Wonderland scenes and text (in french)  to the backs, wings and sides of these sweet birds and paint them in a kind of robin's egg blue hues and rainbow hues.  So here is my studio, filled with pecking birds awaiting their turn and being painted!  When I'm done I will put a few of these in my etsy store.  I really like them though, so maybe I'll keep most of them around.
