Art Dolls And Goddess Inspired Drawings On Etsy

Art Dolls Galore

So I have this problem or some call it a gift of making tons and tons of dolls every day. I get an idea and I bring out needle,thread, and fabric and get to making a doll that expresses whatever feeling I am in. Here's just a few. And feel free to check out my etsy store http://darkmoondoll.etsy.com

Art Dolls,Cloth Art Dolls, And Handmade Paperclay

I recently made some paperclay using glue,newspaper,dishsoap,bleached flour and a bit of water. It made so much paperclay and I made a bunch of cool art dolls with it. It took these creations two and half weeks to dry. I think the next time I will spread the clay on fabric or polymer clay. One so it will last longer and secondly so that it will dry a lot faster.

I also decided to share some photos of the cloth dolls I have been working. Been wanting to add more embellishments to the dolls and possibly so props for the dolls.

Art Doll Mace Darkmoon

I just finished a new doll. This one came together within 2 days. That is quite incredible for me because it usually takes me months and sometimes years working on one doll. This one is a bit more simplistic than most of my dolls. And it is not freakishly huge like a lot of my dolls can get.

It's kind cool how it all came together quite magickally. I had extra handmade polymer clay beads on hand to make her bone nose and teeth. I knew that would come in handy. I have made so many different beads but have not sold as many as I expected so now I will just use the extras for adorning my dolls.

I like the simplicity of this one and will be doing more like Mace in the future.

Please do go check her out in my etsy store. http://darkmoondoll.etsy.com

Thank you all hope you are creating something today!

Cloth Art Doll Mystickal Darkmoon

I just listed one of my newest creations "Mystickal Darkmoon".

I have been wanting to get a working sewing machine but through this longing for creating a piece much faster I have found patience and tranquilty sewing by hand. I think that a lot of my own energy is being put into the dolls I make by hand because the connection of the fabric in hands.

I used recycled fabrics,yarn and acrylic paints.

The story of the doll doesn't occur to me until I have completed her or him and I like it that way. But on the other hand I have been making some sketches that will be interesting to bring to life as a doll.

I am even thinking about writing little books to go with each one. My son is really good with origami and made me an origami book I could use for one of my dolls and I think that they can even turn into a comic as well.

Please stayed tuned on that project. In the meantime here is a photo of Mystickal Darkmoon her two-sides.

I hope that everyone has a creative day today!!!

Scary Art Doll For The Summer

Truth is I can celebrate Halloween 365 because it is just the one holiday that means anything to me! I think I have Halloween using out of my pores! I remember one thing my most favorite art teacher Mr. Stan Stoneking told me that made me not afraid to express the dark side of myself was to just let go. Letting go of others expectations of what my art should be and how I am allowed to express my creativity.

Here the latest two scary ladies I have listed on my etsy shop. Each one has a bit me within them. They were both handsewn and I used some of my handcrafted charms on Pinky Darkmoon. Can you guess which one is Pinky?

Gothicka Darkmoon is a tall woman. When I first started creating her I thought that she was going to be a man. She began to look a bit like a gothic version of the nutcracker. As I continued to work on her day by day she began to look more and more like a androgynous creature of the night .

I hope you enjoy viewing my latest creations and please do stop by my etsy shop because I don't get enough time in the day to list every new thing I put in my shop.

Art Doll And SpringGoddess Purse on Etsy

Hello all,

It's been quite a while. I have had some trying times yet I continue to create through it all because I think that creating art is the best medicine for me. I seem to be creating schizophrenically. But surprisingly I end up finishing some projects that I would think would take ions to complete.

What I have learned is that it is better to just go with the flow of creation and listen to my creations message of wisdom and not worry about finishing every single project. Most projects I have found to be therapeutic and to have an endless amount of steps to them. I am learning to be more patient with them and not be so quick to get them over with when I am faced with something that seems impossible to complete.

My husband had these beautiful dresses that were given to him from a friend to sell on ebay about 4yrs ago. I kept asking him if I could use them for fabric since they are not worth any money. He finally gave into my begging and said yes. I created this awesome springtime flower goddess purse from it. I am so incredibly happy with how it turned out! It is listed on my etsy right now.

There is a dark dollie I just listed today that I have been working on for over 3yrs. She kept speaking to me but I wasn't listening. I finally listened to her and gave her the simplicity that she wanted. She only required a few adornments. I attached one of my charms which a sculpted from polymer clay. Which is a evil eye. The other embellishment is a amethyst-like charm. I forgot to mention that she is a two-sided doll.

I hope you enjoy viewing these creations and that they inspire you to create something from the heart!
