I enjoy delivering a trick in my work.  From a distance, she’s a lovely, shapely dancer—up close she’s a striking goth with boots, studs and piercings.  The point is, we’re all beautiful in our own ways.  Sculpted from ebony, pear and bloodwood, with inlays of breadfruit, bloodwood, vera and holly, and with gilded (22k gold leaf) metal jewelry and studs, on a walnut base. Finished with aniline dyes, enamel, charcoal and acrylic polyurethane.
