Sculpted the clay on (air dry clay), also made her strawberry horn using the same process. Additional I applied three layers of new white gesso, and mixed up some acrylic paint + impasto medium and piped a bunch on to some palette paper in order to get the best dollop

All of Merengue's components!! Her ears are felt that I stitched to give them their shape + painted the inner ears with acrylic paint. THe strawberry leaves is just some green quilting cotton. After all that I picked the dollop I liked best and then superglued everything together
