Lagoona 2 - I have always regretted not keeping the first doll I created. I wish I had for sentiment

Lagoona 2 - I have always regretted not keeping the first doll I created. I wish I had for sentimental reasons. So when I finished the first version of Lagoona, I decided I wanted to keep her in my collection. I had an absolutely lovely person who wanted to adopt the whole Monster High inspired series. I asked if I could create a second Lagoona for them and they were happy with me doing that, and here she is. I’ll admit I also love how she turned out. I think it has something to do with the colours.

Draculaura - this lady was pretty fun to create. For the most part she is my usually colours I like to use when it comes to make up. I don’t think she is as out there as my Lagoona, but I do like how she turned out in my style. If was fun creating them especially for the fact that I could still identify the characters. I feel like I kept true to their character I just honored them in my style.

Clawdeen - I had a lot of fun creating these characters in my style. I really love doing to research and challenging myself to the different kinds of make up. I’m really loving trying out all different kinds of eye shadows. I do wish I could improve on eye shape, but if I want them to look symmetrical I need to go with the shape I’ve drawn. Once I start erasing and trying again and again it just gets messy, then tears are involved and it turns into a whole thing!

Lagoona - I decided to try recreate the original Monster High characters in my style. I started with Lagoona because I really loved the colours. Something that I really enjoy is seeing characters in all different artist styles. I find it fascinating, especially when it came to monster high. When it came to painting and drawing, I had always struggled to find a style. When I put together my final pieces there is smithing that ties them together I. Regards to style or technique where I could identify them as mine. When I started working on dolls, it took me creating about five dolls to find a style. Now, I think my dolls can be recognized as mine (the photography style helps too). That is something i am really proud of. I still paint and draw and I still haven’t found a style with either, but I’m working on it.

Rillian - the last doll of my Beneath the Water series. Each doll was inspired by a body of water lake, river, pond, fountain, ocean and I decided on frozen water too.

Monroe - for the first time a doll turned out exactly as I had planned. From the moment I rerooted Frankie, I was in love with this doll. I love the colours of red and green on her. It’s just perfection. I truly love how she turned out and I’ll admit, it was very difficult to sell her. I honestly didn’t want her to go. There is a beautiful botanical gardens near where I live, I visit it often and Monroe was inspired by the koi pond that is there. I even took photos of her there and the scenery was perfect for her. I’d love to do this colour combination again.

I’ve noticed it as I’ve been looking back over all my old photos.

Nerissa - while learning how to do embroidery I wanted her corset to look like little bubbles with a gradient from dark to light. My favourite colour is blue and all it’s shades. I enjoyed creating this one for that reason. I was initially only going to do four dolls for this series, but I couldn’t leave this one out.

Eira - for my first solo show I made a series of dolls that I felt were whimsical. I am absolutely inspired by anything related to water. I love flowing dresses (still learning how to sew them). I try to push myself with each new doll I create. I taught myself to embroider the dresses. I really did push myself with these ones. Eira is a water nymph of ice and snow.

Estelle - this was a commission I did for a customer. They had ordered four dolls from me and I was so anxious about creating four dolls for one person. I think this is where my love for white and monochrome started. Although I know the base doll is blue, but the fact that I only used minimal colours is something I find challenging but very effective. This makes me want do create a pair of dolls in black and white.

Snow White and Rose Red - I love how these girls turned out. Just like I had hoped. I used an Elissabat and a Draculaura doll. I found it difficult to tell the difference between the two dolls, but once I did the repaint I could see a big difference. I’m really proud at how delicate they look.

Snow White - now that I’m able to do so much research with my dolls, I do work a lot slower. It gives me the time to really consider what I’m doing when it comes to shading makeup or even making the clothes and styling hair. I can honestly say I take pride in what I’m doing. These outfits were one of the most elaborate outfits I have ever made. So many layers and tiny details. I had always struggled with sewing, but some how, one day something clicked and I made these! Although, I had created a few versions because I couldn’t choose which combination or material I liked best. That seems to be something I do now, create more than one outfit to make sure I can make it properly.

Rose Red - taking another challenge for @thedollartistscollective was creating another pair of dolls. This time for the Grimm fairytale theme. I’d never heard of the story of Snow White and Rose Red. So I bought a book and did a little research on the internet. A lot of my process when making a doll is research. I used to just create a doll when I first started, but now I do a lot of research. Reading, image research, makeup and outfit research. I create mood boards and only once I have a kind of idea where I’m going do I start working on the doll. I really feel like this has improved the quality of my finished doll.

My two girls Soleil and Titania - attending the masquerade ball as the goddess of night and moon and the goddess of day and sun. I’m super proud of these two. Usually I plan out my dolls and things don’t turn out the way I had hoped, but with these two, they exceeded my skill level, my planning and my expectations. Even the photography kinda blows my mind. (The editing could be better, but let’s just focus on the positive for now!)
