Block Art Dolls

 
Block Art Dolls
 
These little ladies made an appearance at the Baker Hunt Holiday Art Show/Sale this past Sunday.
The show was small in size, but big on attendance! Other fellow artists there had really wonderful work! Besides the bad weather, it was a fairly successful show!

Art Doll Minuet

The silk sari fibers used is called the Love Letters Skein because the color resembles that of old vintage letters. I fell in love with the color. She measures about 18" tall.

Game Boy II

 
"Game Boy II"
 
This doll didn't come out quite like I was aiming for. I had an inspiration picture of an old doll that a friend gave to me yrs. ago called the Carnival doll with the wetting mechanism.  I left the wooden box sitting around until I couldn't stand looking at it any more, so I pushed myself to do something with it. I'll have to make a few more boxes to try it again. If at first you don't succeed, try again! 
 
 

 
Game pieces: bingo #'s, dice and a jack.

Coco

 
"Coco"
 
 
Let me tell you! That skirt she is sporting had been around the studio for about a year and half. I had totally different plans for it, but it just didn't seem to pan out, so it sat and sat. Well, I finished her a few months back and she has now been hanging in the studio complete and ready for a photo shoot.
I really have to be in the mood to photograph and that happens not very often.

Pipp

"Pipp"
 
Pipp is a new style of art doll I had been working on and he accompanied me to the Loveland Art Show last weekend. A sweet woman named Marilynn came around to my booth and fell in love with him, so now Pipp has a new home.
