Doug reminds us that life is indeed sweet and there are many things we can be grateful for! Delicious sweets and the company of our loved ones, to name just two.
A welcome addition to Doug's ongoing Sweets Collection.
This new sculpture is the follow to the bestselling pair of limited editions from 2018 'Life Is Sweet' and 'Pick Me' - as well as the combined Sets Of 2 Prints - but has there been a (deliberate) mistake in the title?...
…I noticed this sculpture is essentially the limited edition print 'Pick Me' brought to life in figurine form with 'Fuzz' the dog added from the 'Life Is Sweet' print.
Arguably this is more Pic N Mix sweets from the days of Woolworths than it is marshmallows! What we can all agree on, is that is a smashing new Hyde sculpture one that you have to remind yourself not to eat!
A rather special sculpture and one of only 5 of the Artist Proof's made of this most popular of sculptures, part of Doug Hyde - Sweets Collection.
Speaking of sweet, our little Hedgehog friend has found himself a large but sweet strawberry in the new September 2020: 'Token Of Love.' Doug is adept at pulling at our heart strings, your love for animals and sweeties!
Another addition to the Doug Hyde Sweets Collection.
You are nearing your last chance to purchase Life Is Sweet - Sculpture (2020) and the limited edition print Pick Me (2018) that inspired Doug to create it!
As you can see in this side by side comparison, they have much in common we Doug's human character lost in a ball-park of Pick N Mix sweets! - takes me back to my days going to Woolworth's own lol.
The main difference is that character Fuzz The Dog is present on the sculpture and looking very full!
A great time to match up editions and make 'sets' and we have done this here with two bestselling editions: 'Pic Me - Picture' released in 2018 (along with 'Life Is Sweet') and the matching sculpture but confusing it is called 'Life Is Sweet - Sculpture' - maybe they swapped the titles up! lol.
Incidentally, the sculpture was released some two years later (2020) and these 3 limited editions have become a very sort after sets. This proves that when Doug releases imagery in dual format of picture and sculpture, it becomes super collectable!
