Eggshell Fairy Dress Tile
I took the picture for this 4 x 4" tile a little farther away, because if you're too close to it you can't see the dress for all the color. Made of eggshell mosaic, this strapless gown with snug bodice flares into a full billowing skirt at the hip. and was painted with alcohol inks and given silver fairy wings to complete the fantasy. My heart resonates with this piece because all the elements of it -- the colorful gown, the delicate wings, the admonishment to dream -- take me back to my childhood where good dreams were hard to come by and very precious. Would I wear this dress? In a heartbeat! And I'd make sure the wings were nice and shiny too. If I didn't have anywhere to wear it, I'd have to throw a party myself! *grin*
