So, I actually filled out up my latest little steno book. I’ve drawn almost everything in it that I had planned, so it will soon get tossed into the recycle. I’ve never been very much of a packrat. I think it’s a side effect of working with manuscripts and archives. After going through other people’s old papers, I really want to keep as few of my own as possible.
This is one of two Marisole Elven set designs. I think this set is going to go to Monica of the Marisole Monday family. I’ve sketched and scanned the set, but I think it’ll be a while before I get it cleaned up and colored. I was very productive scanning last night while watching season 3 of Grimm.
Another “elven” set- I am thinking Margot or an Other Friend will model this one. It’s been scanned as well, but it will be a while before it is ready to be colored. I have other things ahead of it in the queue.
Poppets are getting some love here. I’ve just finished up a historical set for the Poppets which will be up next week. I have a bunch of contemporary stuff those paper dolls in progress, so I feel like some fantasy things will be next in line.
So, these are things that maybe coming down the pike soon enough. Plus I’m trying to do some fun Halloween planning. Usually, I don’t think far enough ahead to really get into the holiday, but this time I really want to.
The Elven sketches look great! Hope you do them soon… 😀
are you really going to throw your old sketch book away? I love to craft and I love to use mixed media in my work, I save the ends off of sewing patterns, I use news papers and all sorts of stuff people see as rubbish…and if you haven’t already thrown it away I would love to use some of your old sketches. please let me know. I just love your dolls and I’m actually printing some more out as we speak! batman-love at live dot com
I never throw out my sketchbooks, but I do get rid of my little steno books that I keep in my purse. What I don’t share on the blog is that these notebooks have as many grocery lists, random notes and work stuff in them as they have paper doll doodles. The work related matters get put into my files and then I shred the notebooks. I’m afraid I wouldn’t feel comfortable sending them to someone else, since sometimes they have personal information in them.
I love your work. Whenever I’m at my grandparents I beg to print two girls out. It’s a little embarrassing because I’m 13 and while other girls are on dates I’m cutting out marisole mondays. I think if you made a lace collection or a city girl collection would look really good. I look up to you
