Another bag ... another city ...
... another landscape wool painted ... another pictorial felt I made.
This time, I wool painted Warsaw's Old Town, which obviously is the oldest part of the capital city.
By the way, it is on the UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites, so if you ever - by any chance - happen to visit Warsaw, don't forget to check for yourself if the landscape on my pictorial bag looks anything like the original.
To be exact, it is the Castle Square - between the Old Town colorful houses on your left and the Royal Castle on the right.
Tall Zygmunt's Column - or if you prefer - Sigismund's Column in front and the Cathedral behind - it's just the beginning of all tourist attractions.
And the girl - a redhead - dry felted like always.
She's kind of 3D with her hair and dress standing out of the felt surface.
My mystirious girls look differently with every pictorial bag.
I wet felted the bag using different colors of merino wool and silk, bamboo, linen to lay out the blue sky, the houses, Castle, greyish square and the Column.
After that, I used a felting needle to correct the lines of the buildings. The girl came last.
It is felted seamless and the back is in a shade of ash grey.
I finished the bag with a metal frame with a handle and a matching chain - which can be actually hidden inside.
This bag is really one of a kind.
It took a lot of work to finish it but the result is worth the effort.
