I had a tiny leather witch hat which I'd
bought ages ago and this inspired me... |
||
An MDF bookend of two walls and a base A window was cut into the back and then the angled roof was added. |
 Distressed, stained and painted using a vinegar & steel wool mixture then touched up with a wash of diluted Americana Asphaltum |
Close-up of the interior with Drac-in-the Box & Hobby Dragon, (note the ancestors on the wall) Witch Doll & Teddy-Bat. |
Showing the angled roof which leaves a cavity for a night scene (far right) of bats hanging from a branch with the moon in the background. |
 Eaves area is lit with a single mini bulb - the battery for the "bat scene" is hidden in the trunk and the switch is behind the pile of books. |
 The quilt is computer printed with Halloween motifs. See the witch's portrait as a child standing against the back of the chest? |
View from back with dead vine which disguises the electrics running up into the "bat scene". |
 View from left side painted in acrylics of the witch going night-riding. |
 The Trunk itself is covered in simulated crocodile skin (computer printed/ texture paste scales); the handles are cat faces from Fimo. |
  Witch Doll The basic Body and Head could have been either male or female but once the hair was added, definitely a "she"! The sculpted Hobby-Dragon head was sculpted and baked - the fins were added and fired again. The detail was painted using Genesis heat-set paints. |
