Pattable picture - gryphon

I was trying to do a painting of a beast leaping out of the canvas, with an attached newspaper sculpture for the part that was leaping out. Only I got the paper soggy with paint and then got impatient waiting for it to dry.

So I tried to think how could I do something that was more than a painting that didn't require ages of waiting for stuff to dry? And anyway, I like fur better than paint...

And this was the result: pattable pictures.

It's a piece of random cardboard about 15 x 20cm, over the top is some black velvetty material. Then the pieces of a gryphon picture have been cut from scraps of fake fur and glued in place.

Here is a better picture of it than the one I first uploaded.

$US30 including postage if anyone wants a pattable picture of their own. Keep the design simple, though.
