Little Clay Faces


After creating a fabulous burlesque face for my last spirit doll, I got excited about
the new look. All that glitter...va va voom! I had some Fimo clay on my work table
and started to form some face shapes with tiny noses. Baked 'em in the oven as
directed, and then started playing with paint and glitter again. For now I am using
hot glue to attach them to my standard canvas head forms. We'll see. Change is in
the air.

Burlesque Spirit Doll !


I'm working on another challenge for the fabulous online group, Art Dolls Only. This time
it's a Burlesque theme. She's not done yet, but I'm happy with her evolution so far. I've had some thick purple faux fur in my studio, and it's finally been put to good use as the doll's cape. I'm also pleased with her glitter eyeshadow. My little girl commented that this doll has
"a tricky face". Hee Hee !!
