Surf's up.....dude!

Meet my latest art doll: Surf Dude!



He is on exhibit at Art & Antiques Studio & Gallery in the Eau Gallie Arts District.

Come see him tomorrow at First Friday!!!

School's out and.....

“Mom, I’m bored!”

“Already?! Summer vacation just started 10 minutes ago!!”

Have you heard these words in your family already? Well here’s an idea to combat that boredom: why not learn how to sew this summer? Once you master this useful craft, you will find all kinds of things to do to: make pillows for your room, sew tote bags, design a doll wardrobe…or create fashions of your own! I’ll be teaching classes for Kids and Teens at Hancock Fabrics on Merritt Island in June and July…see the flyer below, and I hope to see you this summer!

  

Sea Beanies!

I taught my Space Coast Doll Artists club members how to make Sea Beanies today. Look at the wonderful results! They used my pattern and gave me terrific feedback on a couple of things. My pattern will be published very soon!

Funny Faces

Little molded polymer clay faces all ready for my Sea Beanies workshop tomorrow at the Space Coast Doll Artists meeting, where I will introduce the first draft of my Sea Beanies pattern. The little dolls will look something like this when finished:

 

Flowers and Butterflies

 

I made this summer sundress from pretty butterfly fabric I found on sale at Hancock Fabrics. The buttons are little sunflowers. It fits me, but it feels a bit juvenile for me at my age. I think I need to get over that…what do you think?

Personal expression

"Emergence, the empowered goddess" is one of my art dolls and will be on display at Art & Antiques Studio & Gallery during their “Portrait of a Woman” exhibit May 4 through 30. Come and see!
