TBAI's theme for this year's Gallery piece is "Name That Tune"!
There will be 55 one of a kind artist masterpieces that's for sale in August
at the show in Binghamton, NY. (refer to Show List page)
My Gallery Piece is "Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear".
I hand designed the two piece set depicting Elvis and his bear.
Teddy is about 17" tall & made of German Schulte Mohair, glass eyes with needle felted eye lids & felt eye whites, needle felted muzzle/mouth area, ultra suede paw pads with needle felted toe pads, steel shot for weight and 100% polyester with antibacterial fiber.
The shadow box is 20 & 1/2" wide X 17" tall and contains an original 45 RPM record of "Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear", various pictures of Elvis throughout the years,
a pewter medallion that has two guitars & is etched with the words "Memphis Tenn",
a Hurdy Gurdy on the bottom left side that plays the theme--the knob is made to be turned from the outside of the box to hear the tune,
original sheet music of the song,
and my automobile license plate-reduced in size to add to the Teddy Bear Theme!
The price for this set is 495.00
