Back in the saddle again, 8th day of Art
My computer is working again!! yaay! (running all over the room yelling, flailing arms) I spend a good part of the day trying to grab an image for my post in the old portable, and it was very close to impossible, because I took a picture kind of far, and the program there doesn't crop, so I was about to start clonking my head on the desk, until super man came to the rescue with a magical box, plugged some wired did some magic, and voila! I'm able to go back to my stuff.
Funny how a piece of metal with plastic can make us feel so happy :oP
OK, and onto the art!
Remember I mentioned a painting I had not included in the video? Here it is:
And a close up showing the yummy texture and tons of layering:
However, I still couldn't catch the "interference" with it's delicate shimmery sparkle on the wings. Maybe with outside light? I just didn't want to wait anymore. And just for the record: it's such a pleasure to be able to crop! LOL I'm on a roll baby!! \(ツ♥)/
I hope you enjoyed today's Art.Please let me know what you think!

Lavender's story
So I have been telling you, my three readers, how much fun (and frustration)I've been having making dolls, and finally here is Lavender!
She is not at all what I envisioned. Right from the beginning, she decided she was going to be herself, and no matter how much I moved the clay around, she decided she was going to be... Lavender. lol
You can see her HERE.
She's up for adoption and will bring along her polymer lil'cupcake.
And how was I going to stop at just making the doll? I had to make a video!
As always I had my assistants ("Hey, don't take away the camera... where's the tripod?... No, we don't need explosion noises for the background thank you... who was eating fritos on the carpet?... where's the... never mind, I'm sitting on it")
It was a lot of fun!
I want to thank Melisa from The copper mouse here's her blog for all the info!
It's been a long time since I used my sewing machine and making little dresses is challenging but I'm loving it.
I am currently finishing a doll with a Disappointing Christmas present.
Keep an eye over here!
Here's Lavender's story:
"Once upon a time, there was a little girl lost in the forest. In the mysterious, dark forest…
She was sitting by a lavender bush, all covered in little dry leaves and lavender blooms, therefore she was named “Lavender” by the people who found her.
Her hair was blond, her cheeks rosy and her toes…. well, pretty big!
They tried unsuccessfully to find her family. No one knows who her parents were, and since she was so little she didn’t remember why she was alone in there, where her shoes were or if she ever had a donut.
Not knowing what to do with her, they took her to Mrs. Blathersby’s “Orphanage for the unattractive and mentally unsound”.
She still gets very nervous and scared if you mention the forest.
After she arrived to the Orphanage people kept calling her "Laura", "Laverne", "Larissa"... never Lavender, so she decided to give them all a little hint on her name by coloring her blond hair to a almost neon “lavender" color!
That did not work so well either, because there are still some people calling her Lisa! And some yet, call her “fuchsia”.
Lavender thinks of herself as a delicate flying fairy. Fancies herself as a shimmery moonlight dancer… although she was not graced with any beauty, or shimmer nor wings... and she literally never combs her hair.
Since she insists that fairies don’t have shoes, she keeps on going barefooted all the time through marble, rain, gravel, and twigs or sand, her feet look more like a nasty troll's, covered with calluses, bunions and are really, really bony!
Every night, right at midnight, after failing one more time at flying attempts… Lavender always tries to sneak into the kitchen to get one more cupcake, but they always catch her because of the thump-thump-thump of her wide, heavy feet.
It is said that one of the teachers left the orphanage right after that, because she couldn't deal with naughty barefooted kids who would let their tangled-up hair in wild colors, on top of everything else. But there was a witness who said the teacher was in a hurry when she left, carrying a huge trunk full of cupcakes… That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it!
The end"
