ageing angels

I have now finished two of my ageing angels series - one more to go before next weeks hanging. This one above is called 'does the attitude come with age?' .................. or 'attitude ' for short! She is the culmination of a number of things - first the old flour bag, remember? Old things are not neccessarily scrap heap material.

Second the love of girly colours and fluff .........does that increase with age?

The hat and long rasta plaits - is that a long term wish that can only be achieved when one is in control of self image ............and that only comes later in life (doesnt it?).

The ballet shoes and feathers ...............dreams are made of that - as well as unachieved ambitions.

and then there's the attitude .................... the arms crossed, defiant, eyes shut, not listening face.

Is this figure a reflection of me ?? No - it isnt really but I know people like it!

and here is 'the authoress' - 'the writing lady' - I think we all know someone like this - a little bit OTT - talented but has unachieved ambitions. Face depicts - deep in thought and planning the next book.

The colours are a little of date but environmentally friendly - so good enough! Arms crossed in a do not disturb statement. Pen nibs hang from her dress in readiness for the next installment..........

Her hair is unkempt but tied up in an attempt to look 'tidy'

and all my ageing angels have hairy legs .................... but then everybody has hairy legs .......dont they?
