"A New Series Of Eight Daisydolls Paintings" in progress






This is a series of eight paintings that I am working on simultaneously. They are coming together as a nice collection. I've never worked on so many paintings at one time but I actually like it. It gives them all a similar color palette and style but they will most definitely be one of a kind and be able to stand on their own or group with others once they're finished.

I love the next step that comes with these paintings which is all the detail. I love it so much that I photographed each piece as they look so far and through "Shutterfly" and I made a hard cover 8X8 photo book journal with the images. Each page will be one of these faces some more unfinished that others and I will be able to embellish them over and over again with doodles and writing. I can't wait to get it. I will post photos once it arrives.

    oMgoodNess!

    I simply adore the 'unfinished' stage of art...the energy is brilliant..and i can honestly say that I've never pumped out eight at a time...! wow..that is superbly in a class of it's own thinking!
    I should try that too someday...you're right...the colours would be so effectively harmonized that way! and what a series...

    lovely.....lovely.... BE-gorgeousioso!

    can't wait to see more!

    These paintings are stunning. You are a very talented artist. I hope you don't mind but I referred to your blog and linked your blog to my post this morning. I was very inspired. Thank you for sharing them online. I look forward to viewing more of your work.

    I like how you work these up in so many layers, but each one looks finished at every stage. That's a lot of craftsman- er- craftswomanship!

India

Meet India, she is such a treasure! I made from a tea cup I brought back from India last year. She sits 6 1/2 inches tall. The base she sits on is a beautiful square plate I found in Crate & Barrel that matched the tea cup perfectly. India has been embellished with fabrics I also brought back with me. Her hair is a combination of wool and acrylic fibers and she is jeweled with brass accents. India has henna patterns on the souls of her feet and around the tops of her arms and sits in this peaceful position as she meditates. She's waiting to sit in your home and bring you peace.

Art Doll Mable
Meet Mable, she's trying her best to keep her skin glowing. She believes in nourishing her body from the inside out but once a week a good facial mask and cucumbers on her eyes make all the difference in the world. She stand 8 inches tall and would love to sit on the side of your tub or on your dresser. She could spend hours in the bathroom! * Mable is an original one of a kind decorative Art Doll and not meant to be played with as a toy.
