Ink drawing of a woman, looking inconvenienced, a book in her lap, fingers placed on the pages. She's surrounded by objects she has collected - birds, feathers, bones, hooves and insects An ink drawing of a woman's head, a knife through her temple. Her hair flowing over the table. On the table is a small bowl with an unusual tool/fork inside. Berries are on the lower right corner. Two hands reach out from the right, towards her head.

I finished my first art doll a month or so ago ~ here she is ✨
An Anne Shirley-esque design. I'm hoping to make many more, and create molds of the pars so I can begin selling some eventually (sculpting takes so long) 🍄

Me: gets sewing machine
Me: first project - something complex with extremely difficult fabric
Results: hideous, eldrich creations
.
The third one is finally getting there, but this fabric is so nightmarish, I'm just gonna dye some white cotton - it's going to be an art doll creation. Hopefully.

*New Post*

My latest post exploring the story of Hannah Phillips of Astley Abbotts, examining her tragic death and subsequent haunting, her maidens garland and how folklore has kept her spirit alive.
