Description

Babbette Bunny by Lori Mitchell is an imaginary resident of the Easter Fantasy World created by the popular American Folk Artist.  Imbued with a nostalgic quality that reminds collectors of old toys and Mother Goose characters, each papier-mâché statue tells a story. With a little imagination, you can arrange any number of Lori Mitchell’s characters to recreate your own childhood memories.  A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, Ms. Mitchell found her inspiration in the bulbous-bodied, slim legged look of Film-Maker Tim Burton’s animated characters. East Coast based, Lori 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.”
