Your dolls are marvelous. Congratulations for this beautiful new blog. You have very nice new work in your gallery.
Wonderful new blog, I’ve had a great time looking around and look forward to taking an online class soon, have been wanting to for ages and now promised myself to do one.
I’ve added a link to your site, hope this is OK, just love your dolls and your animals are spectacular 🙂
I think your artistry is glorious,whimsical, and emotionally striking. You have inspired me to work with clay. I was daddling with polymer clays. I have recently been awed by the clay and the effects it takes. I am going to start out with a self hardening clay and look forward to it. Thank you for your inspiration in artistry.
