Post 29: "The Infanta Maria Theresa with Wooden Legs"

I found this wonderful leather laced wooden leg on eBay, and just had to use it and do another Infanta version. This one is a reference to the famous portrait of Maria Theresa with the watches by Velasquez, using my Grandfather and Great Grandfather's watches hanging on the barbed wire petticoat, and my Grandmother's fan. The embroidered velvet "bustier" is actually an antique altar trim that we somehow wrapped around Jojo and bunched up behind her back.
