Lisa African-American Rag Doll

SOLD

This one of a kind hand sewn, hand painted African-American (black) rag doll stands 30 inches tall and wears a green and cream home spun dress with red accents. She has two gold ribbons in her long black hair and a red wool beret. Little black patent leather shoes and white socks adorn her feet. A sweet smile and big brown eyes were hand painted to make this doll one special creation.

Note: Because her skin is hand painted she does not have the cuddly feel of most cloth dolls. For this reason she is listed as ornamental, a shelf sitter or bed doll.

Heat treated to seal the acrylic paint
This perfect gift will arrive at your door signed, dated and numbered on her bum. She is doll #16.

Daisy’s Sister in Sepia

She started off as a pencil sketch then I added digital coloring. The little sister’s face is familiar to  other paintings of mine. She’s also got her little white daisy hanging low as she walks about dust in search of color. Daisy’s sister is half way there.

Details: A young black child, girl, hair ribbons, big brown eyes, soft blue dress, white daisy facing down, sepia background, selective coloring.

A Work In Progress

She’s coming right along. I need give her eye lashes as well as a few nicks and tucks then she’ll be all ready. Her red beret is so sweet.

Lisa and friend by you.

Both dolls were 100% hand stitched and hand painted. Their clothing is from rescued materials.

In Angel's Arms

This painting was originally titled “Birth of a Fairy” but as I looked at it longer she reminded me more of an angel than a fairy.

So here we have an African-American angel holding a child with her wings span wide as a shield. Her skirt comes down and paints the earth in vivid colors of blue, green and purple.
