art doll
I am so happy to be a semi-finalist in the Bombay Artisan Series! Voting is open from today through 11/7/19. You can vote once a day for the entire voting period. Please help me secure a spot at SCOPE Miami in December...the top two artists will be there. Please vote for me here. Measuring Spoons is my official entry.
are all done! Except for tails and all the little bits of touch up I still need to do...so, really, not done, but I am getting close. I have to install my exhibition on June 4, and I think I can see the end. This little donkey showed up in an earlier post, but has got limbs now. This happens to be my mom's favorite (she has two donkeys of her own.)
And then this deer is one of my favorites. I have had the body in my work closet for at least a year, waiting for a time to get finished. I also am making her a little mirrored vanity and stool...she needs a place to do her makeup.
Friends.
I just finished my sloth. He is one of my favorites. I had a hard time sewing in the limbs...so I might have to go back and rework the connections after my exhibition in June. I've got nine more to put together and lots of little fixes to make. But I am getting close.
In my studio along with some other little critters. Sometimes I think my animals can get a little too similar in body shape to my sewing ladies. I am so glad this guy is a meaty no neck. And I am just noticing that all my animals lean to the left....maybe because I am right handed?
So I hear there have been some troubles commenting...and unfortunately, IT support (husband) is out of town. As far as I can see, the settings seem to allow comments, but I will have to try my giveaway another time. Until then, I just posted this on nikimade.etsy.com.
"Doll (Stretch)" is one of my three most favorite from this series. It is so nice to go back to work and remember why it mattered so.
SoI have been working on little silly figure that wasn't supposed to take me long, but did, I am making her a whole bunch of kitchen dishes and cutlery. I"m not sure why, just felt like she needed them.
The eyelashes and rain boots are my favorite part.
