Your faces remind me of Dave McKean's style, and I feel like I'm look at some surreal fae creatures wandered out of an enchanted wood.<br /><br />Your use of so many different materials creates such an organic, beautiful texture that adds to their oddly elegant nature. Wonderful job!Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568638009919231786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-35006677597231280642019-04-02T11:33:48.567-04:002019-04-02T11:33:48.567-04:00Your embroidery is wow but your doll is wow wow wo...Your embroidery is wow but your doll is wow wow wow!!Divya Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17522282917004358863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-85073891891792225632019-04-01T11:21:06.581-04:002019-04-01T11:21:06.581-04:00First, re-purposing your Barbie doll was such a gr...First, re-purposing your Barbie doll was such a great idea! And I love the cheesecloth use that creates a draping effect, Mother turned out fab! Baby is fab too, it's all a learning curve. Her wings turned out as they were meant to be, scrapping ideas let to that. Your first embroidered piece is stunning, I love how your stitches add so much dimension! Congrats on three superb projects!

And the little luna moth baby is perfect as a display piece. I love him (her?). and the art doll...wow!!!! You can't even tell it used to be a barbie. And I love that you used an unused doll to create art. She is just beautiful.

I would love too see all the different pieces you made over the last months together next to each other. Your art dolls are wonderful and I love to see where you are going with each one... and I love even more how they came together, what pieces and stories they are made off. The idea of covering the barbie doll made me laugh out loud and worked out so great! Saraccinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002153353895199412noreply@blogger.com
