When Pigs Fly


This is my project for the Anything goes Challenge at Bleeding Art for May. I decided to use this old party hat from my stash along with a Flying pig I also has in my stash.


I painted the hat with grey gesso.  It took quite a few layers since the hat was a very absorbent felt type material. 



With a mold I added texture.


I cut up this belt and painted it with gesso and acrylic paint.


I found this flying pig at a thrift store which I painted.   

I painted the hat shades of brown and gold and then added a gear from an old mixer  I then also added  a butterfly, belt pieces for earrings and necklace, gears, words, eye lids and pennies.
