Velox


Velox is a figure that I just completed. Influences for these figures include native toys that I have seen in Alaska, the bog people discovered in Europe and African sculptures.

The mask, (which I think of as an owl face) has hair made from an old paintbrush. Its shoulders are wrapped in rusted cloth and old parts from a typewriter hand off of it's waist.
