Sewing the leather jacket.
Accessories for my puppet  - I made the bow by curving plywood aound a heat source. I engraved it with a pyrograph and stained it. The arrowheads are sanded perspex.
My puppet 'Atsumori' in performance, telling the story of the young warrior in battle. An interpretation of the the famous Japanese Noh play Atsumori.
