Doll news



This is a monster girl I am working on now. I posted these WIP pics on Instagram originally. If you want to keep up with what I am creating I suggest following my Instagram. Sometimes I do not upload them here to the blog.

I'm also happy to announce the two dolls I had in the Dollirious show SOLD! It makes me soooooo happy to know that people out there adopt my dolls and take them into their homes!

My latest dolls are much more detailed, time consuming and are mixed media. I stain, paint and seal them so that many of the doll parts are hardened. These recent dolls are a representation of my gallery works.

The doily and things








I can't believe I almost cut up this doily...it's been sitting in front of my sewing face for months and several times I reached for it. Today I really noticed it's beauty for just what it was.
Also I must have read some of John Bellairs books as a kid but I can't remember! I know I knew of him. Anyway my daughter brought home a discarded book from the school library, The Chessmen of Doom, by John Bellairs and I started reading it one day because I was stuck somewhere with nothing to do and oh wow! He's wonderful! He is completely the kind of writer I would have read back when I was a kid but for whatever reason I just can't remember the stories, just the covers...whatever the case, I am happy to be reading them now :)
