Sailing........

I remember the first and last time I was ever on a sailboat. It was on Lake Erie and I loved it! Gliding over the water silently, effortlessly, skimming the water leaning this way and that way with the only sound being the wind. When I saw image of this little guy I knew I had to turn him into Captain Monarch The Sailboat Fairy!He stands approximately 6 inches tall on a 2 inch by 2 inch painted and collaged wooden block on glass marble legs.
This boy was one lucky little guy with such a beautiful toy sailboat. His image is from around 1922.

I've been working on several pieces and will be sharing more with you in the coming days!
