I wanted to try something new, so learnt a sculpting technique from the late Hannie Sarris... HERE
The kittys are 7 days old... all doing well, & the two kittens with twisted legs are slowly improving. I could only get two quick photos before mum got really pissed! I was trying to photograph Toblerone, who has a cute little triangle marking on his face, when mum yelled at me, grabbed him, and took him back to her nest. The photo was too blurry, so will try another day. She lets me do physio on them, she just doesn't like the camera I guess!

Hannie was an amazing artist, I was lucky to meet her in person and to admire her dolls. She was working on a new book but did not get the time to finish it. Her dolls were so fragile, just like she was. We still miss her on the fantasy-forum. Your kittens are very cute!
ReplyDeleteIjust forgot to say that your doll is lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour doll is wonderful, she is so elegant and exquisite.
ReplyDeleteI´m very glad that the kitties are improving. They are so cute, I would love to smooch them!
Have a great weekend!
Great tutorial-thanks for sharing it. Your doll is lovely. Those little kittens are so sweet-I hope they do ok!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the Link, Abi....Paperclay is on my list of things to try....this is a great step by step way to see if I'd enjoy making dolls :)
ReplyDeleteYours is so soft and ethereal....I love that wee beauty mark on her lip...you always give them such wonderful details and personalities all their own. Do you ever write little biographies for them that they carry with them to their new homes? Every aspect of their creation just seems so weel planned and intricately executed :D
...and those sweet kitties! Such cute little fluffy bits of purry love :)
Abi, your doll is beautiful:) I was happy to see that the little kittens are doing well.
ReplyDeleteLove the new doll. She's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear the kittens are doing well. They're so stinking cute. :)
It's always interesting and useful to try new things, to explore different styles of work, to learn new techniques. It's strange to see a doll of yours with a different profile, but I find her beautiful and elegant, too!
ReplyDeleteThe little kitties are so sweet! They are lucky to have you, taking care of them!
The doll is wonderful! And cats are very cute!! I want kiss them!!! Are adorables. I´m happy for them.
ReplyDeleteA greeting

I saw the tutorial...what a way to get my nerves out the way to get me started. Thank you for that. Your doll came out really good. I'm looking forward to seeing more of these new dolls. I really enjoy how you dress them...it inspires me in ways that I have yet to understand. Be blessed.

ReplyDeleteHannie's dolls are just so beautiful. I'm very sorry that she is no longer with us. Your doll is awesome! I really admire anyone who can sculpt. It's such an amazing art form. The kittens are so sweet. I hope their little legs will be ok.
ReplyDeleteDamn, woman, your work is just wonderful...you can't make an average doll, let alone a bad one. This one is just incredible!!!
