The Fall issue of Art Doll Quarterly Magazine will be out on the newsstands next week, and I am BEYOND THRILLED to say that one of my own dolls is featured in their Show and Tell Gallery! YAY!!
This magazine is a fabulous publication, full of amazingly talented doll artists. It is such an honor to have my work featured in the same magazine as Scott Smith of Rucus Studio, whose delightfully frightful Catrina in Waiting is featured on the cover. His work is simply incredible and so inspiring. He is one of my very favorite Halloween artists!
I submitted three witches for consideration and the editors chose Pearl, who happens to be one of my all time favorite witches!
Pearl is a kind old witch dressed all in white. Her dress is sculpted from pearly clay with an ivory silk skirt trimmed in satin ribbon and a fabric flower. Her cape and hat are ivory crushed velvet. Swarovski crystals detail the front of her dress and her little black boots. Her hair is made from curly wool roving. She is carrying her cat, Ecru, who is sculpted from clay.
There are so many wonderful dolls featured in this magazine. If you are at all interested in one of a kind art dolls, you might want to grab a copy. It hits newsstands on August 1.
I'm also pleased to tell you that my friend LeeAnn of Charmed Confections is also featured in the Show and Tell Gallery of this issue with five of her Halloween creations. It's her first time being published and she is very excited! Congratulations, LeeAnn!!
Have a great day! I'm off to work on some more Halloween dolls!
