I would like to start by wishing you a delightful New Year full of creativity and peace.
I have other blogs, perhaps too many, but the way I see it, the net has many roads where people travel and if I can start another thread, I will also meet people that otherwise I would have never met.
I am a professional artist and art teacher. although painting is my first love, assemblage and art dolls has become an essential spiritual practice. I love the process of sculpting with polymer clay and working with textiles, yarn, fibers and beading creating a context where magic begins.
I’ve been inspired by many cultures where dolls were made symbolic of the sacred, full of meaning and creativity…here there is an element of reverence and solitude that guides me gently into that type of art. It is a form of meditation…a beautiful Spirit dance.
They are one of a kind dolls, wrapped with soft cotton and yarn, supported by twigs, vines and mossy tree bark…using polymer clay, gems, shells, herbs, charms and jewelry findings.
Some represent Angels, Spirit Guides inhabiting the forest. Others are Magical Kachina
and Fetish Dolls, helpful Kitchen Witches, Divas and Goddesses…Icons of the Divine Feminine, a kind of Spirit Inspired ritualistic art from many ancient traditions.
