DANDELION KITTIES

Springtime
has finally arrived!

With two days of rain
the grass is finally getting green

and Dandelions are sprouting up tall and skinny
in Faerie Land they look like kitties!
Posing and waiting
for their beautiful yellow frocks and wings!

ALIENS! ALIENS! ALIENS!

ALIENS ALIENS ALIENS
that is what my Captain said when he came out to the terrace to check out my Art Work

I guess they sort of do!
But actually, these are my new dolls
La Garconne Girls
(means tomboy in French)

soft sculpture with paper clay added here and there

I just love working with LaDoll paper clay
my faces in clay are so different than my soft sculpture faces
and the features are big, especially the noses!
Finally enjoying the weather
and experimenting in Twigs Faerie Land

MAD HATTER & WHITE RABBIT

March roared in like a lion, with cold frosty air, and blustery winds
the long cold winter in Florida, seems to be relentless
and I have been bed bound with the flu!

But with the winds, came the Mop Top Faeries
with tattered wings from being caught up in the thistle bushes

I felt it was appropriate to dress them up in soft satin silk rompers
tailed coats and felt boots

A roses covered top hat, and robin hood ears for the other

With all the little hats made, and the fairies dressed
I gazed into those dreamy sweet eyes
and hoped for warmer days
ahead
The completed collection of
Faeries in Wonderland a Hat Party

all dolls are now in my shop
