SWEET FACES

With the Holidays a few days away

my life has become hectic

Baking, cooking, shopping

and decorating

Sometimes it is just nice to take a minute and sit at my desk and look at something

beautiful

So I adopted Abby

Abby was created by one of my favorite doll artists

and sweet friend

Evelyn

I was so excited to be able to get another one of her special dolls

Kitty has been kinda lonely

Sailor is always happy to make new friends

Evelyn art work is so peaceful and tranquil to look at

gives me a serene feeling in the midst of Holiday frazzle

Check out Evelyn's Shop and Blog

and get yourself a little

tranquility

and in the meantime, while gazing dreamily at dollies

Pinkie has been dressed

Pinkie is part of my Mousefeather Collection of Dolls

Japanese paper-clay ball jointed primitive style

fairies

10 inches tall and ready to play

she is in my shop

resting up before the decorating starts!

MERFAERIE AND HER WATER BABIES

Central Florida has many lakes and rivers

Beautiful farm land dotted with ponds filled with

lily pads

some of the most elusive mermaids can be found

swimming

with flame red hair, often mistaken for large goldfish

shy water babies

swim close to their Mother

Keeping a keen eye out for Alligators

Merfaes have wings to help in their

escape

a Mother and her Children

WIP DOLLIE FACES

HAPPY WEEKEND

PLAY WITH DOLLS

STUDIO EXPLOSION

This happens every time

I have control issues

Not being able to get the clay to look the way I imagine

sends me into soft sculpture frenzy

I know, I have only been playing around with clay for a year

but not having control over this substance makes me crazy

and a

explosion of fabrics start flying

this time was the worst

I have reverted back to early fabric sculpture

no ball joints

and I started four big rag doll style Faeries

and a Gown for a formal event this month

a new Mermaid Costume for all the

Boat Parades

and all this has to be cleaned up

so the Christmas Decorations

can come out

Best thing to do is close the door

and go watch a movie!

QUIET COLD WEEKEND

WIP # 3

my little pink creature

her head is to big, body to short

legs and arms to skinny

she will still get a cute fairy outfit

hair and shoes

can't pass on my favorite part

of doll making

BALL JOINTED DOLL WIP # 3

Getting glazed with sparkle

starting to get a feel for molding the clay

still like the primitive style dolls

LITTLE LOLITA

My latest doll soft sculpture BJD

Little Lolita

fashion
