Peter's Angel

Recommended Posts

Peter is just getting ridiculous with this...enjoy.

Hello,

...here is a challenging piece. All that you see is leather...kangaroo, cow, goatskin and gold leafed leather for the binding. The base is constructed of heavy card, bound in goatskin, colored with spirit dyes to simulate marble.

These are not mine...I wish... they are from Peter Main, (and I'm sure he makes a commanding salary with his work.) He asks me to post these to this forum from time to time.

By the way, Here is a close up of the hair...

...there is a drawer in the base...it is lined with green suede.

In answer to another question...acrylic paint was not used on the angel.

Attached is a close-up as requested...the wings were one of the most difficult parts (there are eight parts to these wings) as there are fronts and backs (the overlaps of feathers are different) that had to 'kiss-fit' to a feather (no pun intended) edge. Her hair is also a separate piece and it was the last piece put into place after all other pieces were secured with hidden threads.

That ranks as probably the most amazing piece I've seen made from leather to date.
