Love your artistic eye! Could be your start in the fashion world as it's definitely good enough and would appeal to the heavy metal crowd! A new fashion line is born! Mike

I really like mannequin art, love this!
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thanks, Michael….mannequins automatically have a surrealistic humanoid quality, and can be creatively modified in many ways !

Thank you for the compliment...I took this photograph years ago, and have glued hundreds of additional washers etc. on it since . It is finally finished and waiting for my brother to move it out of my living room and into his studio....

Love this washer woman evolution! I hope she is displayed in a place of honor! I have a few human sized golden lady paper mache sculptures hiding in my basement. Obviously we have amazing taste! :)

Congratulations your creative and unique art is featured in the "MANNEQUIN And DISPLAY ART " group!
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thank you, as always.....I wasn't sure if this fit into the group or not, since I "mutated" it. She started out as "Washerwoman" years ago but I started running out of metal washers and started adding buttons, beads and assorted "RoadKill" found objects which seem to make it a little more interesting....
