Lizard's Marionette

Created in March 2010

Inspiration: I have always been a fan of puppeteering and even had a short lived career as a marionette artist when I was 13. I was inspired by students in my sun class to make the curtians the colors they are (orange to lavender).   And the idea for the propeller on the top came from a trip to the surplus store "Axman"

Technique : This one was all about making the parts and putting them together after they were baked.  The marionette is jointed and put together with wire and beads.  And the strings can be pulled up by the Lizard's hands to make him move around.  The propeller also spins!
