DOLL JOINTS & BIG BIRD

I had re-do the joints on Sarah
so much better
still trying to develop a primitive doll
style

While Sarah was posing
so was the big Sandhill Crane
this bird comes into the yard
twice a day




she is already for hair and some fun outfits
as for the Crane, it is looking for a mate and sees its reflection in the
windows, must like what it sees!

WIP SARAH

Back to work
or back to play
Sarah my child set


stringing test
and a magical suitcase


the more I create these ball jointed dolls
the more they are starting to look like
the Scandinavian marionettes of my childhood
memories creeping into my
art work

ELLA ELFIN FAE

In the great Pine Forests of Central Florida
it smells like Christmas

Ella love the Pine Trees

she can easily
climb
with her long fingers and toes


going all the way to the top


swaying and rocking in the Summer breezes



perched in the trees
watching the world

ball jointed and 13 inches tall
Japanese Paper Clay Doll

THE NEST KEEPER

Springtime
and the birds in the yard
have been busy building nests

With all this activity going on
I've seen a few
Nest Keepers
Tiny colorful fairies
that perch on the edge of the nest
and watch over the eggs
while the Mother bird is away

dressed in sparkle
and colors of Spring


patiently
waiting for the Mother's return
Sweet Tweet
a Nest Keeper

Tweet is a ball jointed Japanese paper clay doll
One of a Kind Fairy
now in my
Happy Mothers Day
I'm off to the Windy City
to visit my Mother-bird
