Dena & Simon

Had the urge to create some art dolls made form scrap metals. I usually like to use materials that have their own original colors, because I'm not big on adding color. Maybe if I were a painter, but I currently have no desire to add paint.

Simon's arms are created from wire as well as the designs on the midsection.

Her arms can swivel around her body for a different look.

 

Her base is from an erector set.

 

 

Her hair is horse hair.

St Therese

I forgot to announce on my blog that I had an art show this past weekend and it went well. I placed first in sculpture category, so that was nice.

St Therese, is a piece that took me a while to figure out how it was going to be connected structurally.

So I put off adhering her together while in my mind I was evaluating the situation. I really love the way she came out and the colors and composition work well together.

Assemblage Mixed Media Art Doll Lucy

"Lucy"

 

It's been a little while since my last post, but I have been busy in the studio. Lucy came together this past weekend. I hand wove the base a few yrs. back and the torso/head were nesting on top of another body for a while. Well, they collided last weekend and became Lucy. Most things that are not permanently attached sitting around in my studio are fair game for other uses.

 

 

Her head is a decorative knob used for a drawer.

Well I finished my class with Michael Demeng and it was fun. I became entranced with his use of the eyes in his work and thought I would give it a try. I used 2-D eyes instead of paper images.  It gives the piece a more dramatic look.
