Gypsy Polka Dot Dream

Sweet little angel girl sleeps & the "Gypsy Polka Dot Dream" surrounds her large wooden bed. This mixed media, Whimsical Art Piece, has been created by Sherry Candy Lane. In her travels, so many interesting items has accumulated & now gather to become a part of the Polka Dot Dream....a wooden, carved flute from London, a 1980's illustrated card of the gypsy piper on the beach luring the striped & polka dot creatures. Bold blacks & whites, blackberry purple, midnight blue, peach add to the luster of this tale.
Precious little girl's dream is not scary--as you can tell from the Wooden Flute's expression.
Floral twined painting on the bedposts & checkered bedding make a very special bed. Rhinestone threads drape from the Silly Zebra, while the little zebra poses on a prism box. A jumbo polka dot ball adds to the drama, center stage.
This art piece measures 12" wide x 15" high. Flanking the piper's beach entrance is a metal happy sun on the left and a wooden jaunty cat (one of a pair of earrings). Blue metallic grass snuggles under objects, along with iridescent glaze. A ribbonned & beaded tassel hangs from the left, front bedpost.
The sweet felt doll girl holds her teddy and rests on a fine cork & china hand.


The "dream" word says it all--top center--as well as the huge black & white button acquired on Ebay--from a Canadian Seller.
