Meet Teagan, the woodland goddess, the leaves are turning from green to different shades of pinks, falling from her hair to the ground below. Not quite finished, but I'm leaving her at this stage for the time being.

Didn't realise that its been a week since my last posting. Where have the days gone too. I'm a little further on with the doll, have painted the trunk and I'm busy embelishing it. Will have to paint the arms and hands, but what colour, pink, brown,green. I will be covering them up with slashed chiffon or something like that. She will have another hairdo, which will be embelished with leaves.

The next stage
Enjoyed doing this next stage, very messy but I think the end result is very effective and really does look like the bark of a tree. Its made from cotton wool paper. As I had plenty of paste left after the first dress, I thought I would made another one so I had one that I could practise painting and embellishing on.

Had a lovely time down in London, all went over far too quickly. I've done alittle bit more to my doll, pleased with the head but the arms and hands have not turned out how I wanted them. With the dolll only being 10 inches tall, I had great dificulty turning the fingers, infact I couldn't, tried a glove hand but I wasn't happy with them. In the end, I have put used a wire for the arms and fingers, going to cover this with paper clay. Hope this will work.
