Description
"Little Marleen went upstairs and took her best silk handkerchief out of her bottom drawer, and in it she wrapped all the bones from under the table and carried them outside, and all the time she did nothing but weep. Then she laid them in the green grass under the juniper- tree, and she had no sooner done so, then all her sadness seemed to leave her, and she wept no more."The Juniper Tree, Brothers Grimm.
Another piece I did for the 'Away in the Woods' that opens today, April 30, at Bear and Bird Gallery .

Lovely, sad and macabre, just like the fairy tale. I love her dress and the tender way whe wraps the skull in her handkerchief.
