MONKEY #2
Here’s the last monkey. Same colors, different sitting position. He’s the sad sensitive one.
He measures 14″ tall and his wing span is 9 1/2″ wide.
This is the first year that non of my pieces will have a stand. They stand perfectly on their own and I don’t think it’s necessary. The tail, just like the other monkey, helps to hold him up.

FINISHED MONKEY
I never had a chance to take any progress pics. So here he is all complete. He measures 14″ tall and his wing span is 15″. I was originally going to make his wings much bigger but decided it might distract from his awesome face. I am really happy with how it turned out so I decided it would be the center of focus and not the wings.
I’m working on the second guy right now.
They will be going to Plush You 2009 at the end of the month.
Though it’s hard to see because of the water mark, but the back of his coat has Oz embroidered on it.

FLYING MONKEY’S
I’ve finally started working on the pieces for Plush You this year. I’ve decided to make the flying monkey’s from the Wizard of Oz. I’ve had them in my head for a while. I plan on making two of them, each a little different from the other. I’ll post some pics of the body as soon as I get it done. But I think the most impressive part of these guys is going to be the wings.
I searched for imagery of the flying monkey’s from the books and the movie and will use both to interpret my own version.
A really, really rough sketch
