Update on Projects

I've been working on my three art projects for a while now and felt it was time for an update.



Equestrienne 2:  The doll is finished, except for a touch-up on her Lumiere shoes.  The muslin face I made worked well, just as well as the Dolskin I should have used.
 
                       

The horse is still in construction.  I've been covering small areas of the armature with Claycrete, then letting it dry, so I only work on it every couple of days. There is still several more days of work.



Elusive Butterfly: Almost done.  I made the sunflowers with cheesecloth dyed with Sun Yellow  DyeNaFlow,  then glued jute circles in the center. The flowers were glued to florist stems.  The finished flowers were set in the base.  The hat was decorated with ribbon. The doll was glued to the base.


I still need to finish the shawl and add the butterfly.


Yvette: No pictures for now.   I haven't done much with Yvette... just a quick glance when I pick up one of the other projects.  Each time I look, I realize I am not happy with the face; so I plan on redoing the head.  After some searching, I did find some fabric I think will make nice clothing, but I'm still a long way from finishing her.
