SWIMMING WITH MERMAIDS

It is Hot

it is August

and I hear them calling

Beach Babies

frolicking in the surf

might be time to head East

and stick my toes in the sand and warm blue water

Spend a day watching the kite-surfers

building sand castles

Summer will soon be over

and the Mermaids songs will fade

Enjoy the Summer

these three soft sculpture mermaids

are in my

shop

DEVON NUMBER NINE

Devon

is finally finished

she is my ninth

ball jointed doll

For awhile I thought she would never have a beautiful gown

until I visited the Mill House in Juniper Springs

this 1930's magical house

inspired a Faerie Creation

a gown that begged to be worn by a red-headed Faerie

lounging in my studio

Devon will reside as part of my private

collection

WINGS

A REALLY COOL DRESS

With the lightening flashing in the

Studio windows last night

Devon

finally got a dress

I saw my second water spout on the lake

another wild Friday night

calm sunny morning

waiting for wings

WIP IN MY STUDIO

Lots of dollies

I'm working on, all at the same time

keeps things interesting

dressing the Clay dolls

takes the longest

I like the simplicity of the doll

unadorned

my newest creature

who are you?

Beach Babies

to be in my shop

soon

fantasy creatures

KAERIES FAERIES

The quintessential Faerie

out of all the dolls I design

these fairies are my favorite

although I have been creating these dolls for years

and they have changed a little over time

If I were a Fairy

this is what I would look like

dressed in Renaissance inspired outfits

Forest dwellers

beautiful silks and screen print chiffon skirts

and soft suede corsets

these two lovelies are in my

shop

WIP DEVON

Just love this picture of my new one

Devon

working on her fairy gown

SUMMERTIME LADIES WHO LUNCH

Hot Summer Afternoons

French Ladies

enjoying

chilled Champagne

and

strawberries

Looking so cool

LiL Cocos

the modern rag dollie

shop

NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN A DAY TO PLAY

Lots of dollies on my table

WIP

FRENCH COURT FAIRIES

I adore creating French Fairies

my newest pair

all the Marie Antoinette

gowns

and fabulous up-dos

so sweet they look like candy

frilly little French Court Fairies

in my shop
