We have featured Caleigh before on Created Local with her wonderful coaster sets, and she has also been kind enough to donate over the years to our Charity Raffle. A real gem of local talent, Caleigh has now applied her highly creative illustration skills to this very well know toy.
We all know the classic form and shape of the popular Russian Dolls, but I’ve never seen any so creatively crafted. Caleigh’s Russian Owls are instantly captivating and let’s face it, lots of fun. Each handmade character is beautifully finished with it’s own unique personality. Truly inspiring creative work that would brighten any room and most certainly be a talking point. Caleigh is selling at many fairs and through Facebook and I would love to see these for sale in boutique home stores, and more…
Be sure to check out the full range of Russian Owls including some amazing commissioned owls all finished to specific client details over at www.behance.net, and take a good look over at her etsy store HERE where there are many other wonderful items for sale. You can also read a nice little interview over at www.stumbleupon.com
