Moon King, Lady Katherine and Nin

Photobucket




The rain is falling steadily outside my window this morning. Subsequently, all my children are spending their Sunday inside today.



Rain does not, however, dampen their exuberance or their limitless energy. Already this morning the living room has been entirely transformed into a city of tents. Couch pillows serve as wobbly walls, quilts are transformed into colorful roofs and child-like imagination fills the rooms.

While they are all duly distracted with their building projet, I thought this might be an opportune time to quietly (off to the sidelines) gather my thoughts and present the Moon King and his two children to you. As you can see, they are not bothered in the least by what is going on in the midst of our house, their miniature universe.

All seven of the Celestial family are now complete. This has been quite an endeavor of love and I am pleased with their outcome. Today I would like to introduce you to the King and to his lunar children, Lady Katherine and Nin as they are finally settled in together.

Lady Katherine leans in thoughtful observation while Nin rests her head affectionately on her sister's shoulder. Her arm rests on Katherine's wrist, a sign she will faithfully be at her sister's side in word and deed.
The Moon King is their silent, steady security.

Together, they stand 16 inches. The Moon is mounted on a candlestick I whitewashed and filled with a cloud of soft white wool for him to float upon.
Very soon I will post portraits of the Queen and faerie Carmen.
Then, off they will fly to their new home. How exciting!

Thank you for meeting the King, the Lady and Nin...Rose

  1. Que fotografia mas real has hecho,Rose. Si no las hubiese visto en tu mano, diria que son reales, humanas. Espero tengas suerte en Ebay, ojala mi economia fuera lo suficiente para poder tener una de tus hadas, aunque sea la mas pequeñita. Besito, feliz dia.

  18. Hi Rose, I have been unable to move, sitting here at my computer, and when finally I could move my fingers react to express my humble opinion of his great work. No doubt, God endowed you with a special gift, so thanks to the work we are witnessing. You have a special touch when it creates, so no doubt I congratulate!! His work is beautiful!! and details on everything that is particularly his followers, a kind of admiration, joy, peace are many feelings when we look at his work so beautiful that we would not be able to buy a piece!!
