Thank you so much to a very supportive & helpful Muriel, Bob & Andy and the wonderful fellow artists and friends who made my experience at Miniatura very memorable.

Here are the characters I took to Miniatura last weekend. We all had a great time! I had good news prior to the show - I was accepted as a member of ADO (Art Dolls Only)!

Adrian The Gallant Punk

My new 24th scale doll. Loved making him.

A fun twist on the traditional cute Edwardian anthropomorphic animals (which are wonderful). 

Adrian is a contemporary sub-culture mouse with a green Mohawk hair. He is wearing a Victorian style shirt with purple & black dress coat, half gloves and black skinny jeans. His shoes are styled like Tibetan boots. All clothes are made with organic cotton fabric and hemp and dyed with eco paints and plant pigments. 

And he is made of paper clay, recycled aluminium wire and hemp twine. He is 3 inches tall, fully poseable and can stand by himself.








He is on Etsy

A long way since ........

..... I seem to have come in my sculpting. I was sorting out my photos and I found these. They are from Christmas 2009 for a local charity stall I had with my friend who made wonderful finger knitted jewellery.  I was into masquerades and bright colours back then. I thought it may be fun to share them with you. I was quite surprised to see them after so long and how cheery they looked compared to my recent grey characters. These are brooches, a few pendants, earrings, message cats, smiley yoga cats and merman and mermaids.
BE DAZZLED!! :-)
