My two little nephews Sam and Nate were born 2 days apart, so for their birthday I wanted to do something fun and creative. I was inspired by Emily Martin's Black Apple portrait of Monkey C. Hall from her Lost on the Midway collection. I just loved the little guy and had to have him for my two little monkey buddies, but of course, she wasn't going to release the prints for another 2 months! So I decided to make 2 monkey felt dolls. Really, I was hoping they would turn out a little cuter but Nate and Sam loved them no matter what! I hand painted the faces and then went to work. I have never done anything like this before so my felt dolls can only get better with time :) P.S. Birthday hint for my family...Since my birthday is coming up soon I would love love LOVE one of Emily Martin's 8x10 prints. My two favorites are Heart and Key and Lost on the Midway
Monkey C. Hall
