Winter Sinking Cupcake Girl: Broken Aeroplanes.

I usually listen to music very carefully and Winter Sinking Cupcake Girl is the result of my active attention. Aware that my work is deeply inspired by rock bands and songs I deeply enjoy, my translation remains unconscious. Sometimes I realize often only months later that a specific song lead me to create a specific world. What a mysterious adventure...

Broken Aeroplanes by Richard Butler (from his 2006 solo album): I don't know why exactly but this beautiful song inspired me to concoct a depressing – but almost happy – mood, I can call desperate indifference. (Broken Aeroplanes on youtube) Then I hand drew this sad and smart cupcake girl.



On the photographed drawing, coloration was done with Photoshop.



I took the ice rink background from another one of my images I made for a cartoon on an absolutely beautiful (beautifully absolute!) cover of Joy to the World by Frank Fuller.


Enjoy the candy bittersweet color palette of Winter Sinking Cupcake Girl. I love pop music.

Vicky Petit-Boni sleeps in a mini matchbox.

Vicky has two sisters.

Yeti in a tree.

The scientific community generally regards the Yeti as a legend, given the lack of conclusive evidence, yet it remains one of the most famous creatures of cryptozoology. The Yeti may be considered a sort of parallel to the Bigfoot of North America. (Wikipedia)

Yeti lives in snowy mountains.



The Abominable Snowman is a 1957 British horror film, directed by Val Guest and starring Forrest Tucker and Peter Cushing.

After long and deep reflection, I concluded that yetis also have the ability to live in a tree.


At least MY yetis, who became ornaments, since I attached a thin loop on their head for hanging.



This mini ninja yeti monster ornament plush was stuffed and hand stitched by me.

Lou Petit-Boni sleeps in a mini matchbox.

Yeah! Lou Petit-Boni is the fourth Petit-Boni listed in my Etsy shop. He is a tiny ninja bunny sleeping in a mini matchbox, measuring 2 x 1.5 inch (5 x 4 cm). The box is painted in orange acrylic, roughly sandpapered and decorated with original drawings.


Good morning, spring green ninja bunny.


Lou and Betty Petit-Boni like to play with fire.


My Etsy work is here: mimiMatelot on Etsy. Thank you for your interest.

Jimmy Petit-Boni sleeps in a matchbox.

Be welcome to meet Jimmy Petit-Boni. This tiny ninja plush bunny was hand stitched and stuffed by me. He's made of chocolate brown felt, has camel beige mask and tail, red eyes, blue bow. He is so small, he sleeps in a mini matchbox, measuring 2 x 1.5 inch (5 x 4 cm).


The brown ninja plush bunny has no face yet. He's got no eyes and cannot see felt, thread and scissors I used to create Jimmy Petit-Boni.


Jimmy could also have been a ninja plush bunny girl. The bow makes the difference.


Jimmy has two sisters: Coco and Betty.



Thank you for your interest in my miniature work.

 

Coco Petit-Boni sleeps in a mini matchbox.

Be welcome to meet Coco Petit-Boni. She is the third member of the Petit-Boni family. She's made of baby blue felt, has white mask and tail, blue eyes, yellow bow. This tiny ninja plush bunny was hand stitched by me.



Coco Petit-Boni fits tight and sleeps (tight) in a mini matchbox, measuring 2 x 1.5 inch (5 x 4 cm). Painted in acrylic. Decorated with original drawings.




Take a look at her brother and sister:


Jimmy is a chocolate brown ninja boy; Betty is a butter yellow ninja girl.



I really enjoy hand stitching with felt. Hope you like my work.

Big Winter Bunny Girl and Small Hunter

My biggest fear as a drawer is self censorship. I would like to feel free for the rest of my life. And let the images coming -- as little surprises -- to my mind. Big Winter Bunny Girl and Small Hunter is about a weird erotic relation between a man (a very small man) and a girl (a very big girl). But the huge girl has nothing in her praying hands, while the mini man has a gun.

Le paysage nu.


Birches.


The hunter will soon be reduced.


Wrong face bunny girl in the sad forest decor.


This face will be pasted instead.


«You may have a gun but I'm far bigger than you.»



Big Winter Bunny Girl and Small Hunter was hand drawn by me with ink on paper, then photographed. Coloration was done with Photoshop. Thank you for your interest.

Betty Petit-Boni sleeps in a matchbox.

I like the idea that bunnies are girly and boyish at the same time. And a simple bow can change everything. I started a new series: Petit-Boni, sleeping in a matchbox.








I hand sew with felt. My bunnies fit tight in a small matchbox, measuring 2 x 1.5 inch (5 x 4 cm). Painted in acrylic. Decorated with original drawings. Signed.


Thank you for your interest in my work!

Each wire ring embraces one monster.

How to display my plushy work? I went to my first craft fair a few weeks ago, with 30 of my tiny mini monster plush. But I didn't figure how to present them. So I built 4 stands with iron wire, dived into pink styrofoam. Each wire ring embraces one monster. I think it's was smart idea; they were looking great.


Three little spy yetis surrounding the supplies I used.


Almost empty.


Filled with colorful cute little ones.



Here is a closer view of one of them. My Etsy shop - mimimatelot.etsy.com -- contains 20 tiny mini plushies just like this one. Be welcome to look at my work!
