This piece is titled "Elise" that is based off of my painting with the same title. Elise has a Flamingo head with a teenager body and is freehand machine stitched and appliqué with image transfer cell pattern. The house in the right hand corner is an image transfer on fabric. The house was originally painted and is part of the original painting that I did back in 2005. The lily is freehand machine stitched on high quality felt.
This final piece is stretched on a wooden painting panel and then framed with a pine wood. The dimensions of this framed work is 11.5" X 9.5" X 2"
The frame is thick enough that the piece can stand on its own if you wanted to display it on a mantel or shelf.
