THE PONDERINGS OF BALL JOINTS

Spent a good part of the day pondering
ball joints
the most important part of the doll
and for me the most difficult
I used single joints early on, but like the way the double joint makes the dolls
movements amazing

these small delicate pieces are the key to arm and leg
movement
but they have become a constant
experiment
practice makes perfect
