Lady of Hope

 The base of the piece is a recycled mannequin.  It took me 2 years to aquire all of the different colors of pinks that I would need.  Once I had aquired all that was needed, it took me another 1 1/2 years on & off,  to complete her.

The piece is covered with many recycled items.  These includes strands of vintage pearls and earrings, ( I lost count on how many), other vintage jewelry, vintage china in various design & color of pinks.  I found an old bisque doll figurine in the ground after a hard rain in Pennsylvania.   A few of the tiles are pieces that were used for magnets or some other use before I put them on this piece.  The piece is capped with a Capodimonte flower piece purchased in a consignment shop.

The base of the piece is 19 inches & 28 inches tall.
