Happy Holiday's

Happy Holiday's to all.  This week I am putting together my new art room.  Can't wait till it's done.  I will definitely post pictures when complete.  Finally some organization!

My Boo Boo Doll - Maddie is finished!!!

Well it took a bit of time but she is done!  I learned a lot making her and had a lot of fun too. This was the first time making leather shoes.  I found a great blog By Tarja Simpanen.  She has tons of tutorials on doll shoe making and I was thrilled to find her.  Here is a link to her blog.  http://fashiondollshoes.blogspot.com/
I have 3 more Boo Boo Dolls in the works so I'll keep ya posted.

Still working on my Boo Boo doll

Well I am still working on my new doll which after so much time does not seem so new now.  Ran into a few problems armature wise, this is my third body and I am considering trying a fourth tomorrow.  This one just does not seem right to me.  So half way back to the drawing board. 

A doll for my doll

Here is a broken doll that I made for the new doll I am working on. 

Things in this world have changed!

I made a few art dolls back in the day (20 years ago) but the material to sculpt with was so not as durable as the clay we have today.  I am a huge fan of Super Sculpty, I can't say enough about it.  Paper clay, I am still getting used to. 
A while back I discovered The site Etsy.com, it was there that I discovered all of these fantastic art doll artist's selling these incredible creations.  I was in love with all of them.  I mentioned making my own to my sister Adrienne who might I add is a huge doll fan since way back.  She would throw such mind blowing tantrums in the Barbie Doll aisle that she would score us a new one every time we were out with Mom.  Well Ade asked me to make a African Art Doll for her home.  It didn't come out perfect but I have been hooked since.  Here is the doll I made for her.
