Little Witch Doll




This is a little Halloween Witch I made a couple of years ago. She's all cloth.

Grafitti Handbag.







This is a Graffiti style handbag that I made. I started with an old piece of canvas. I gessoed it, decorated it with handwriting, spray paint, stencils, etc.

Marie Antoinette





































This is my Marie Antoinette birdcage doll. The body is Paperclay. Here are some pics following the process. This took me weeks since I did little bits at a time, letting the clay dry between work times. The photos could be better.








Sultry Boudoir Doll







This is a boudoir doll made from a vintage pattern. She has a cloth body and a Paperclay head.

Halloween Photoshop

As you can see, I'm ready for Halloween projects. This is one I call Scary Girl that I did in Photoshop elements. I've been trying to post some photos of some things I've done lately, but I've had some trouble uploading. I'm sure that everyone knows by now that Butch and I are back home to stay. Traveling was fun, but it's good to be home. I'm working at Ochsner Westbank (formerly Meadowcrest). I'm in Same Day Surgery and enjoying it very much.
On October 3rd I'll be teaching a little workshop at the Green Project. We'll be discharge dying fabric, which is actually the opposite of dying white fabric. It's a process of changing the color of dark fabric by bleaching. The colors are lifted out. It's fast, simple and looks really cool. I'll try to post some results.
