Faerie Enchantment

Projects made with my new Charlotte Dolls and Parts!
As many of you know, I have been working with different forms of clay and dolls over the past 8 months, experimenting with all kinds of clays, texture mediums and molds. I usually make molds of various old dolls I have, in full mold and half molds.

Then the process begins with filling and base washing. My painted doll pieces are sold with pre-painted faces and coated with a porcelain paint glaze for durability and a bisque look. Depending on the project will depend on which mold I use.
Here is a sample of a captured fairy assemblage called: The Doll Soiree Carriagewhere the fairy inside was created with a layered image and one of my doll heads using the bisque formula, and the wheels of this assemblage were adorned with the doll heads.In this next project I have done something similar only in a Christmas wire ornament which I call: The Queen of Candyland! Here is Candy Tinkersby, The Queen of Cupcakes, whose fave color is pink!
