Miss Mouse is enjoying the fresh air while hanging the mouse families clothes on the line. I needle felt the mice in my scenes. They have glass bead eyes and a wire armature, so they are able to be posed. Each "finger" or toe or whatever mice have, are wrapped with pink thread and tipped with a dab of nail polish. I hand sew the clothing. The backgrounds in the outdoor scenes are paintings that I've done in plein air. Most of the paintings are oils. The grass is make with some fake fur that's painted green, a messy job, but very useful. I made the laundry basket with waxed cord with a wire frame to weave onto. Hope you enjoy these images.
