Ahzure has arrived in Texas!

Well, ladies, Ahzure has arrived and is sitting in my workroom resting from her journey! I will post a pic or two of her when we go out exploring in town! She is a lovely blank canvas and I am so nervous and excited about getting to work!

Have a lovely day!

Willow on her way!

Willow will be leaving the NW to visit Rena in Ohio! I had a dilemma with her name; Willow seemed right since she is tall and lives in a wonderfull forested area. I have never made a journal before ... this was a great learning experience!

Ahzure on her way!

Ahzure, a Tribal Bellydancer, left her troupe behind to explore the world. Bidding farewell to her favorite tree, she grabs her journal and heads to Christine in Texas to start her adventures!

The journal is handmade with a fabric cover I colored with Neocolors water soluble and stitched, the pages are hand bound signatures. Ahzure's doll form is fabric with polyfill and while I was going to do a partial form I got on a roll and finished the whole pattern instead.

Dax is on her way to England!!

Hello all! My doll is a Steampunk Diva, full of moxy and ready for adventure!! Off for a quick hop over the pond, to her first destination! She has a cloth body, wire hands, and a polymer sculpted head. No feet yet, but who knows what she will collect along the way!

My journal is an altered sketchbook, with canvas cover and backing. There aren't many pages, in hopes of inspiring ingenuity! I hope she travels fast!

Cheers!

Baubo arrives!!!

Zombie is intrigued!!!  (But no worries- she's out of his reach!) 

I love how she can sit on her own.  A very colorful goddess is she.  My brain cells are a-working. 

I was thinking it would be fun to take each doll on a little sight seeing tour of our towns if possible!  I was in a swap like that where we sent likenesses of ourselves to each other and took them on a tour of the town.  :)

Anyway, I still have to finish my devil girl so I wno't be starting on Baubo right away.  But I'm off to Artfest in a little while (April 6th) so I will probably bring Baubo with me.  :)

Next!

Here is my doll, ready to go to her first destination! She is Baubo, Goddess of joy, laughter and mirth. She will surely have fun during her travels!


Shipping on Monday!

Getting ready to pack!

Well, someone has to be first and start writing the story of this new Round Robin collaboration 'The Wandering Dolls', so, it's me!

I'm Kristen, the British contingent of this art adventure. I'm going to have to pack up my doll and send him/her on its way to the first stop off with Stacie (i think)!

I'm having to send early as previous experience has taught me that it can take AGES to get a doll parcel across the ocean..

My Doll is called 'Seeker'. Although i had intended creating a female, in creation it seems that Seeker may actually be male. This got me thinking that I would be delighted if Seeker developed into a doll of BOTH genders! Head & huge hands are polymer clay, torso and arms are padded calico, legs are wooden sticks. He has no feet, no hair..

The Journal that will accompany Seeker is an altered book, but i've prepared the pages ready for the artists to work in.

Seeker sets out to Learn, to collect Wisdom, hear Stories, share Dreams..
