Self Curled – making

This girl with redhead is about 31 inches long. The longest puppet I have ever made! I usually use a letter size paper to sketch out the structure for the piece but for this one I had to tape three pieces of paper. This was my first time using a sewing machine to make the costume of my puppet. Without it, I don’t think I could’ve finished sewing in couple of hours. This picture was taken right before I made her curl.

Crying Cloud Head

Crying cloud head girl in a yellow chair. The three little people are drawn on paper with markers and are made to stand by themselves. I was surprised to see how they look so natural in the picture with nice shadows. I have thoset same purple converse shoes.

This is a close-up shot of the test shooting. The puppet’s face was drawn with ink on baked clay surface. I always enjoy making feminine costumes!
