Hold on to your hats!

Finally finished up a couple of lasses and wanted to share.


Remember the doll that couldn't decide on hair or not? Well she decided she
wanted hair, but in a lighter shade. She got her wish, and a lovely straw hat to top it off.
I've named her "Eve".
She is quite pleased with herself, can't you tell by that expression?
She will be listed this evening on Ebay.




And ya know I just had to make a couple more Itty Izannah Walker style dollies... These will be going up for adoption on my "Picture Trail" on Aug. 5 Click HERE if interested in purchasing one





I sure hope everyone is having as much fun in the sun this summer as I am!!
Thanks to a generous sister and Brother-in-Law who
own a condo at Lake Michingan. I am so blessed!

Hi,

I just saw Eve on eBay & I have to tell you, she is one of the prettiest dolls I have ever seen! I love how pale & subtle she is. That dress & hat box is absolutely amazing. Wow! For a first time oil painting, you sure hit the nail on the head.

Just wanted to tell you how pretty this doll is! It is breathtaking!

When I look at your dolls, I first think that I know nothing of dollmaking.

And then, I sink into their faces, and daydream about a time that I happened upon them in weathered boxes in an attic. They are so beautiful, and have such spirit. I love each one. We'll see your creations on a movie some day...
