The "Hatchlings" Series

A while ago I completed an assemblage using a small unfinished wooden box, paint, collage papers, and plastic babies to create a piece I called "Hatchlings."  I felt it was one of my more successful pieces and soon sold it.  I then decided that this concept could be part of a series.  With that in mind I just finished a new one called "Medieval Hatchlings."  Both are pictured below.  In the first piece, I filled the box with straw and rested clay eggs on the surface.  The second box is filled with a fabric pillow that I pieced together and rested clay eggs on the top of it.
