Becoming a Beginner Again

I've been posting over on Facebook the progress I'm making on creating Izannah Walker dolls with pressed cloth faces. 

I've been sculpting for 16+ years now and have learned some things in that time. But I'm a beginner at making dolls with pressed cloth faces. But I'm having fun and I will learn with each one I do, as I did with sculpting paperclay. 

I want to complete a doll I am satisfied with that has a pressed cloth face before my 60th birthday, which is right around the corner. I'm really focused right now on completing some circles for myself. And I'm making progress on this circle. 

Here are some of the dolls in process which have pressed cloth faces. These are made with the molds I generated from my antique Izannah Walker doll. The dolls from this mold will make up the Hopestill clan. 





Making things with your hands is healing.
