I recently painted some new dolls, this time with some background colors and new tissue printed tops.
Like my hand drawn background paper? I just realized I photographed them upside down...haha.
I scanned the images to my computer and was able to make print greeting cards from the drawings...
I added hand dyed stamped mini tag necklaces to each girl, to give them a cute accessory to wear. I hope to list my cards and stuffed dolls on etsy in the new year. By the way, I also need a name for these dolls, if anyone has a suggestion, please leave me a comment. If I choose your name, I'm definitely giving you a stuffed doll!
And as a last note, I'm thrilled to be published in the latest issue of Somerset Gallery, Winter 2015.
The editor of this magazine, Danielle Mohler, was sweet to publish lots of my pieces. Below are the pages that I'm in...

ReplyDeleteI like the new graphic dresses on your latest dolls against your (upside down) background paper. I love the little tags you made for them. The dolls have a sweet, innocent look to them. I think a cute name would be Amelie. That's wonderful that Stampington chose to feature so many of your work in their latest magazine. I'll definitely have to get this issue. Congrats!
