The 'rules' for the latest Art Doll Coolaberation include starting a doll using mixed media (which can include fabric) and not creating an entire doll base - for example, create a torso and head; or a torso and legs; or head and torso. The remaining body parts will be added (or not!) by the other participants in the group. Fun!!!
My doll start is complete and here she/he is.....
This is definitely out of my comfort zone, but that's the purpose of this project (at least in my mind). The doll thus far has been created using parts from an old 70's era table lamp. The black at the bottom (legs???) was originally an ugly brass but a coat of black spray paint soon made that better - the middle part (torso??) is glass - also a piece of the lamp.
I have spent the entire afternoon pondering ideas for the accompanying journal and hopefully I'll be able to work on that tomorrow. I have an idea in mind and just have to make it work!!
