Dollandia

As some of you know, I only make these Dollandia Girls a couple of times a year and they take me months to complete (sorry to those of you waiting and thank you so much for your patience!!).  Finally, they are ready to make their debut!!  I have photographed each girl and then a closer pic of her face.  I have not yet named them.  I will only be selling a few of them, the remaining will go to Artfest 2012.

Whew...I've been in a whirlwind!

Sorry it's been a while since my last post!  I always seem to forget how crazy-busy summers are.  I have been home just a few days out of the last 3 weeks!  Not complaining....I have been enjoying time with my daughters and their friends at the beach.  I also had a relaxing, art filled weekend with the fantastic Mindy Lacefield of Tim's Sally at the cabin and an exciting, fun "slumber party" in Atlanta with the ever-inspiring Michelle Allen of Allen Designs and her assistant, Emilee.    Also, my talented daughter,  Bailey just played her first live show in Mentone, AL (a tourist town in North Alabama-she was fantastic, by the way!  Click the link to see.).  I told ya...whirlwind!

I finally found some studio time yesterday.  The dolls now have arms, legs and skirts...just wigs to go!  I also finished the painting below.  I still plan to cover it in wax and antique it.

I hope your summer is going well!!
