Description

Nanny Frost is an imaginary resident of the Christmas Fantasy World created by American Folk Artist Lori Mitchell.  Imbued with a nostalgic quality that reminds collectors of old toys and memories of Christmas past, each papier-mâché statue tells a story. With a little imagination, you can arrange any number of Ms. Mitchell’s characters to re-create a Christmas celebration of your own. A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, Ms. Mitchell found her inspiration in the bulbous-bodied, slim legged look of Tim Burton’s animated characters in The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach.  East Coast based, Ms. Mitchell began sculpting her characters in 1998 and has never looked back. “As a kid, I found everything exciting and surprising, so I like for these figures to unlock that sense of wonder.  My intention is to entertain adults as well as children, so there’s got to be a certain level of sophistication to pull adults back into childhood.” Nanny Frost by Lori Mitchell
