The big one...

I'm finally getting back to this one. I had to put this one down for a little while so that I could update the other doll that's going to be in the show this November. I still have some minor adjustments for the other one but I think its safe for me to start working on this one again. She's about twice the size I normally work in, but I'm up for the challenge. It should be a lot easier for me to sew her clothes which I hate doing. Well I don't really hate it, I just get anxious at that point to be done with it all lol.

Boo made it into an online Art showcase!

My doll "Boo" AKA "I didn't mean to hurt you" has made her way into an online sculpture showcase on Artslant! You can check her out here http://www.artslant.com/ny/showcases/showcase?sublist=18^sculpture

Boo made it into a toy show!

I am so happy to share with you all that Boo has made it into a toy show coming up this November! This is going to be my first show so I really don't know what to expect. I just know that I feel honored that little old me will be among amazingly talented and experienced doll makers. I'm sooo excited! :)

So here's what I did with that tooth

Well I decided to make Boo some kind of funny vampire fairy that bites people's teeth out when they go to sleep. And no, she does not leave any money under your pillow, she just flies away like nothing ever happened. I had a lot of fun adding this bloody tooth for some reason >:)

A tooth for Boo

I've decided to make a tooth for Boo to hold so that she could be some sort of vampire tooth fairy. I made this one out of polymer clay because of the firmness which makes it easier for me to shape. I've been working with paperclay for my dolls because of how rough polymer clay is on my hands but I think it's too soft for this job. I figured I go back to polymer for this small addition. My other gripe I have with it is that I can't seem to keep this stuff clean. I manage to get every little speckle of dirt on it that I can. Anyone have a way to get around this? I'm going to paint over it anyway but I'm sure someone has the secret.

New doll in the works

A new one that I'm working on waiting to be born... I'm trying a few new things here, she way larger than what I usually make. Wish me luck!

I will miss them dearly...

They are going to two different homes. I wish I could keep them :(. I would make more but I need to finnish up on some other things I started.
