"Wraggle Taggle Gypsy" Wood Talismans



I picked up a darling little book at an estate sale last summer because of the motifs in its illustrations.  So the other day I brought out my wood burning tool and experimented with a few sketches that I borrowed from the Fireside Book of Folk Songs, drawn by Alice and Martin Probensen.  Since gypsy is the new woodland, I had to try drawing this little cart.  I love the stovepipe coming out of the top!

Stay tuned and sit tight- I'll have some new trellises to show in the coming days, especially if the rain continues!
