BABUSHKA
Ok, today is another day....can you tell I like variety? I can't help it, I just don't like to stick to any one thing....it's a curse in a way. I think that kinda runs with creativity though, don't you think? I kinda sank back into my doll making but today I experimented with beading....this little doll was time consuming but oh so worth it....I loved creating her.

I would like to personally thank www.theetsyaddict.blogspot.com for listing one of my favorite paintings on her blog. This was very nice of her. Check out her blog for some really good Etsy shops. Thanks again!

This morning I decided I would satisfy my craving for sweets by painting this LIL' CUPCAKE FAIRY....I was very pleased with it, but found when I finished I was craving a cupcake even more....sooooo you know the rest LOL! At any rate I need to stay away from painting sweets for a few days anyway. This all started the other day when I painted my little canvas that said, "Sometimes you just NEED a cookie" because I was craving animal cookies. Oh well....She sold on Etsy I'm happy to say, but Yep, I'm still craving sweets, darn it! Right below it is is my cookie canvas.....too, see what I mean?

PONDERING
Well, I decided to put away my little dollies for a bit and get back to my Canvas painting. I did this one this morning and decided to name her "PONDERING". She is now on Etsy. It felt really good to get back to a little serious side of me I tuck away ever so often. Today I decided she needed longer hair....this is what's great about art!

My New ....."LITTLEST ANGEL LOVEE"

I have just finished my newest "Lovee" Art Doll.... "THE LITTLEST ANGEL LOVEE" She is a mere 6 inches tall. She has just been added to my Etsy Shop. I have mounted her on a wood stand. She can be removed from her stand. Very time consuming but I loved every minute of it. She is had done from start to finish. This is a soft sculpted doll that I have hand painted and adorned with vintage fabrics and tulle. She was such a joy to create....so serene and beautiful in person...lots of sparkle.

CUTIE-PATOOTIE


Well, without knowing it, Jane DeRosier gave me the idea for this name. She named one of my other dolls and I thought oh my, that sure fits this one I just finished. I am tired now and am through for the day.....just had to do this one more while my creative juices were flowing.
This is "Cutie-Patootie"....think it fits her?

I have 2 new dolls I just finished....here's Little Mammy Blackbird.. I totally hand sculpted her as a challenge to myself. One of my clients had asked me if I could do a Mammy. Being from the South I was always taught to respect all colors and races of people, so I did this with all due respect. Plus the fact that I grew up loving the classic, "Gone With The Wind" and like most of us just fell in love with "Mammy". So, I did a Mammy doll and here are the results.
Below is my little Miss Springtime doll....she is made of wood.
