The finished result! I’m so ridiculously proud and pleased with how it turned out!
This was an ordinary door + 3 pieces of mdf board. I carved and sculpted them with my dremel multitool, inspired by the carvings I saw in Bali, mounted them and then painted and sanded the whole thing in several layers before adding a final tint of gold. 💙
The door and side panel I sculpted myself. The top carving is from Bali.
Image ID: A hand embroidered needle painting of a green pear that’s been stabbed by a small dagger. The pear also has a slice cut out of it so you can see the inner flesh. At the bottom of the cut are juice drips that continue down the pear and to the blade of the dagger. The pear is still attached to its tree branch and there are leaves sitting around it. All of this is done on a black fabric background and is displayed in a large hoop that is held up against a backdrop of multi coloured fall leaves.

So today is @bernadettebanner International Embrace your #gibsongirl day and I think this should be a new holiday.
Here are some inspo of mine:
▪ the hair I try to copy most. It has movement and volume. Some parts are rolled up and some rolled down and it’s amazing and compliment my head shape in my opinion
• Brazilians ladies at the Gonzaga Beach. Rio de Janeiro. 1908. I’m a beach girl in case you had any doubts.
• unknown lady in beautiful summer clothes
• Beautiful couple in their summer clothes. 😍
• Beautiful dame and her puppy ( you can also spot mine hidden in my pictures too)
• Harriet Tubman nieces. Fierce and elegantly dressed. Maybe not quite Gibson Girls but fiercely free. Eva and Alida Stewart 1910
• actress Bianca Lyons 1904 with THE BODY. ⚠️
• the always inspiring Bernadette
And myself again because why not? Lol. 😁
🇧🇷 Então, hoje é dia internacional de assumir a sua Gibson Girl interna da @bernadettebanner e acho que este deveria ser um novo feriado. Aqui estão algumas das minhas inspirações :
▪ o cabelo que tento mais copiar. Tem movimento e volume. Algumas partes são enroladas pra cima e outras para baixo. é incrível e complementa o formato da minha cabeça, na minha opinião
• Mulheres brasileiras na Praia do Gonzaga. Rio de Janeiro. 1908. Sou uma garota praiana, caso você tenha alguma dúvida.
• Dama desconhecida em lindas roupas de verão
• Lindo casal com roupas de verão. 😍
• Bela dama e seu cachorrinho (você também podem ver o meu escondido nas minhas fotos)
• Sobrinhas de Harriet Tubman. elegantemente vestidas. Talvez não exatamente Gibson Girls, mas ferozmente livres. Eva e Alida Stewart 1910
• atriz Bianca Lyons 1904 com O CORPO. ⚠️
• a sempre inspiradora Bernadette
E eu de novo porque… por que não? 😁
