A Little Paint Transforms Old Gloves into Cosmic Spirit Animals

Painted gloves by Bunnie Reiss

I know I was just raving about leather bags that celebrate the summer, but these specially-painted gloves by artist Bunnie Reiss are too good to pass up. They’re recycled accessories that, with her help, are given a new life. “My Cosmic Animal Gloves are one of my favorite on-going projects where I get to play with the idea of old and new, symmetry and our strange connection to the cosmic world of spirit animals,” she explains. They feature intricate marks and vintage-inspired patterns whose arrangements will make you contemplate the delicate balance between nature and the human world.

Bunnie sells these gloves! She asks that you contact her directly about it.
