Pink Happy Time

"Pink Happy Time" is a whimsical mixed media shadowbox created by Sherry Candy Lane. The artist has visited Bermuda many times over the years, with her family; so this artwork fell together with sentiment & humor. The words 'pink' 'happy' 'time' blend in the theme. Trimminghams novelty, wooden plaque hails the island shopping. Her large family is represented with the pig-tailed girl, crawling baby, etc... Visitors pay no attention to the family's happy escapade.



Baubles, beads, shells, pins, & a puppy push puppet on wooden base add to the British Island venture.
On the right side of the shadowbox, a 1980's illustrated card gives depth to the scene, as well as more fun.....a girl's skirt & legs & shoes walk along the tops of Bermuda-like Main Street....Pigtails & chubby legs & black shoes mimic the card story....and on this side, a wooden, vintage cat push puppet hangs in for involvment.
This artwork measures 6" high x 15" wide.
