Primitive Folk Art OoAK Make Do Santa

Description

A new design for Jolly Ole St. Nick this season.
He is made from stained muslin and is mounted on a stained wooden candle holder.
He is dressed in a vintage recycled red tablecloth, trimmed in Warm & Natural batting.
His arms are sewn on separately, and held into place with vintage white buttons.
The lapel of his suit is also adorned with 3 black vintage buttons.
His facial features are drawn with artist's pencils and I've also used acrylic paint and oil pastels to detail, shade and highlight.
A small piece of red wool is sewn into place for his mouth, and soft white faux fur is sewn into place for his hair, beard and mustache.
A dark jingle bell is sewn onto the tip of his hood, and I've given him a primitive evergreen I made from painted muslin, to hold in his right arm. I've sprinkled it with German glass glitter. A small stained tag reading JOY is pinned to the front of his suit with a rusty safety pin.
He is OOaK and will come to you signed and dated by me.
