Fractured Fairy Tale

     Alas, who shall I be to greet the King's son?  Shall I greet him with my young, beautiful Rapunzel persona or shall I receive him with my ancient, enchantress side Dame Gothel? After all, who does he think he is to call upon me whenever it strikes his fancy?
     Rapunzel/Dame Gothel is a two sided sculpture standing upon a tower which is a piece of burl wood. The ladies are sculpted on a wire/foil armature covered in paper clay.  They are painted with acrylic. Their clothes are fashioned from vintage fabric and trims. Rapunzel's hair is crafted from sheep wool.  The ladies are 9.5 inches tall and an overall height of 14 inches with the burl wood tower.
