It's Eton from Resyculbinz







He's been sleeping so sound way deep in the ground....but decided today he would come out to play. His bones they rattle as he dances around...a well dress man no other to be found. His top hat is tilted and his cane is a pumpkin. His name is Eton and he's ready to get this place a jumpin.
****************************
Eton is another town folk from Resyculbinz. His body is a light bulb that has been sealed and then covered in batting and covered in fabric. His face, hands and feet are sculpted from Sculpey clay without the use of any molds. They are all hand painted with acrylic paints using a rubbing technique for that vintage look. His outfit is a black silk ribbon...his arms and legs are wrapped in a black wool yarn. His cuffs are felt. His top hat is a black silk ribbon and felt. His pumpkin and snake cane are made from Sculpey clay as well. He stands on a hand painted wooden block with the words "S is for Skeleton" painted on with a stamp of a skeleton, moon and bat. The block is signed by the artist, that's me, on the back.

 Thank you for looking. Check back often as more towns folk are venturing out.

  2. He looks like a happy sort despite having no body, lol. I love Halloween stuff. Did you paint the block too?

    Peace,
