The heads I worked on have turned into actual dolls. I love them and they are still bald. I am taking photos, but because one is a Christmas present for an incredible friend I can not show them off yet.
I have posted photos along the side of some of the dolls I made from 2006 until recently. These dolls were well proportioned and I used some found birch tree limbs for the legs on most of these dolls. I did this as a solution to the fact that there was no way to make such dainty and fancy shoes and the legs presented a problem so my solution was organic and I think it works. Many of the elements in the skirts have an organic nature about them. I chose to keep the eyes closed because the dolls felt more inviting and serene. Click on the images to go to my etsy store.
These and all my dolls have taught me that successes come from one or more failures. The process has been very enlightening and I am living my dream.
