Clown Art Reliquary :: Angel's Bone

This altered book reliquary uses vintage clown art as its centerpiece. What are these two old-fashioned clowns looking at? Perhaps they're waiting to see if the high-wire artist makes it across. On either side of the clown art is a column wrapped with gold paper and red and gold cord. A curtain held back by vintage and modern beads, buttons, and charms parts above them as blue crystals encircle their heads.

Across the way, a gold-colored clown guards the relic, a bone that emerged in a flower bed as a drift of daffodils pushed their way through the soft spring soil. It's stitched on a pillow of red brodade fabric.

The front is covered with red and dark gold paper and has another piece of cheery clown art in the center. She sits in a window of gold paper surrounded by a gold paper border. This one-of-a-kind piece clown art would be a perfect addition to your clown art collection!
